Advantages of silver ion dressing in the treatment of chronic wounds

The healing of chronic wounds has always been difficult to deal with clinically, and the lives of patients and their families have been seriously affected, and the application of antibiotics to avoid infection will lead to multi-drug resistance.

Silver ion dressing is a material that has been gradually applied clinically in recent years. It integrates the theory of wet healing, avoids the formation of wound eschar and stimulates nerve endings, and can promote healing and relieve pain.

Advantage
1. The silver ion dressing is composed of sodium hydroxymethyl cellulose with an open grid structure and silver ions, so that the silver ions are in a dynamic active state, so as to maintain the sterilization silver ion concentration in the wound for a long time;
2. Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is hydrophilic, can absorb a large amount of exudate in the wound, avoid excessive exudate from eroding normal skin and healing wounds, and effectively promote wound healing;
3. Silver ion dressing protects the wound surface, controls humidity, increases temperature, isolates pollution and forms mild negative pressure, all of which are conducive to the formation of granulation tissue and promote the healing of chronic refractory wounds;
4. Silver ion dressing protects the exposed nerve endings and simplifies the dressing change process and times. It not only avoids new injuries and possible bacterial infections caused by repeated dressing changes, but also relieves pain and improves the patient's quality of life.
