Atrauman Ag 10x10cm Silver 10 Dressings

The soft, thin support material made of polyester allows close contact with the whole surface of the wound which is necessary for the drainage of wound exudate. The water-repellent polyester filaments and the smooth surface structure of the tulle counteract adhesion to the wound. Atrauman allows for atraumatic and painless dressing changes. Atrauman’s non-adhering properties are further enhanced by the ointment mass with which the product is impregnated. It has no occlusive effects and avoids causing maceration of the underlying skin. Excessive amounts of exudate are drained away into an absorbent secondary dressing placed on top of the Atrauman dressing. By keeping the edges of the wound soft and supple, the non-medicated, non-sensitizing, paraffin-free ointment base of Atrauman, allows undisturbed epithelialization. Because it leaves no residue on removal, it conditions the wound for possible surgical procedures and facilitates wound cleansing.
