Do you know about the silver activated carbon fibric dressing?

Infection has always been the main factor hindering wound healing, and it is also one of the complex problems for clinicians. So how to effectively prevent wound infection? In recent years, new silver-containing dressings have emerged, bringing new powerful means for the prevention and treatment of wound infection and promoting the development and progress of wound technology. Due to its unique antibacterial and bactericidal effects, silver-containing dressings are widely used in wound treatment and anti-infection. Silver-containing dressings have the advantages of good tolerance and more minor side effects. In wounds caused by various reasons, the sauces can fully exert their antibacterial effects to exert greater bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects in clinical damages. Silver-containing dressings have excellent broad-spectrum antibacterial properties and are commonly used in clinical anti-infective dressings because they can effectively kill bacteria without inducing bacterial resistance. The silver-containing sauce utilizes the bactericidal ability and barrier function of silver to effectively maintain the moist environment of the wound and slowly release silver, thereby directly or indirectly promoting wound healing through various means.

What is Silver Activated carbon fabric Dressing?

Silver-containing carbon fiber dressings refer to a class of sauces that contain silver compounds or nano-silver to obtain antibacterial properties by releasing silver ions or nano-silver particles.

Silver has broad-spectrum antibacterial properties. It is mainly related to its ultra-high adsorption capacity, rich microporous structure, and high-efficiency bactericidal properties of nano-silver. When treating wounds, it can effectively absorb the exudate of the injury and kill it. It maintains a sterile environment, keeps the wound relatively dry and clean, and at the same time avoids secondary damage to the harm because it does not adhere to the injury.
