What is it indicated for?
Urgoclean Ag, Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver is indicated to manage exuding wounds, especially during the debridement of slough. This includes chronic exuding wounds such as venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, pressure ulcers (stage II-IV), diabetic ulcers; surgical wounds (post-operative, dermatological); partial thickness burns; traumatic wounds; local management of wounds that are prone to bleeding, such as wounds that have been mechanically or surgically debrided. The dressing also provides an antibiotic barrier for bacterial penetration of the dressing, which may help reduce infection.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
