Frequently asked questions
Does this dressing help manage wound infection?
Yes. Each dressing is infused with ionic silver particles (Silver Carbonate), which actively provide broad-spectrum protection to assist in managing infections within the wound site.
Is this dressing suitable for heavily exuding wounds?
Absolutely. The Simpurity Fibergel AG is specifically engineered for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Its advanced blend of materials absorbs exudate and transforms into a soft, cohesive gel to maintain an optimal moist healing environment.
Will removing the dressing damage my wound?
No. The material is designed for atraumatic removal. Because it forms a cohesive gel, it allows for easy, one-piece removal that minimizes damage to sensitive, newly forming granulation tissue.
Do I need a secondary dressing with this?
Yes, this is designed as a primary dressing. Since it is a non-adhesive, borderless pad, you will typically need to secure it in place with an appropriate secondary bandage or tape depending on your wound care regimen.
Can this be used on dry wounds?
This dressing is specifically formulated for moderate to heavy exudate. Using it on dry wounds is not recommended, as it requires exudate to activate the gelling process that provides the intended moist healing environment.
How flexible is the material for awkward areas?
It features a highly conformable design. The flexible material is made to adapt easily to various wound shapes and sizes, ensuring it stays in place comfortably on different anatomical sites.
What is the primary material composition?
The dressing is constructed from a specialized blend of:
- Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)
- Calcium Sodium Alginate
- Polyethylene Glycol
These ingredients work together to facilitate the gelling action required for effective exudate management.
Are these pads individually sterile?
Yes, the product is provided as sterile pads. The package includes 10 sterile units, ensuring they remain protected until you are ready for application.
What is the silver content by weight?
The dressing is impregnated with Silver Carbonate at a nominal concentration of 3% by weight.
Does the dressing have an adhesive border?
No, this is a non-adhesive, borderless dressing. This design choice is specifically intended to protect the surrounding skin from irritation and allow for more versatile placement on various body parts.
