Información del Droducto
Pharmagel® Ag Comfort is same as Pharmagel Ag but adhesive PU film extends to allow application without secondary fixation dressing or fixation tapes.
Broad spectrum antimicrobial effect
Thanks to the antimicrobial power of silver ions contained in Zeomic. E Pharmagel Ag shows antimicrobial
effect against a wide spectrum of microorganisms including Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia
coliand pseudomonas aeruginosa; Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA;
and VRE; and fungi such as Aspergillus niger and Penicilium nigricans.
Continuous antimicrobial protection
Pharmagel Ag release of siver is highly controlled, as silver and other ions with antimicrobial power are
bonded into zeomic mineral structure and stabilized. They are seldom eluted out with wound exudates;
In fact large amounts of silver are unnecessary and can actually be cytotoxic to fibroblasts; That is why
its antimicrobial effect of Pharmagel Ag is long lasting up to seven days, depending on the condition of
the wound.
Deodorizing effect
Pharmagel Ag shows both antimicrobial power and deodorizing power. It can be said that deodorizing
effect is derived from zeolite’s intrinsic physical adsorptive ability and chemical reaction between
ion-exchanged metals and malodor gases.
Non staining to skin
Since silver is controllably released from zeolite nanoporous structure, it does not stain skin. Other silver dressings, which lack control over release of silver, may cause staining of surrounding tissues or lead to cytotoxicity of tissue cells which are typically found in the wound bed. These cells are necessary for wound healing processes such as proliferation, angiogenesis and matrix protein deposition.
Photostable
Unlike other dressings with silver nanocrystals, Pharamgel Ag keeps translucent color of hydrogel and does not darken on exposure to light.
Thanks to the unique Zeomic technology where photo stabilizing agents are incorporated in Zemoic.
For use on partial and full thickness wounds, including:
• First and second degree burns
Covering of grafts Surgical sites
• Diabetic ulcers • Venous ulcers
• Pressure ulcers
• Cleanse the wound as per local procedures, then rinse with saline solution.
• Dry the surrounding skin carefully.
• Pharmagel can be cut to fit the wound area and shape, if required.
N.B. Pharmagel comfort can NOT be cut before use.
• Choose a dressing which is slightly larger than the wound.
• Remove the dressing’s protective liner.
• Apply the dressing in intimate contact with the wound base, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
• For Pharmagel, cover the dressing with an appropriate retention bandage or secondary dressing.
• For Pharmagel comfort, gently press the adhesive edges for firm fixation. Then, remove the outer support layer.
Frequency of change:
• Generally the dressing could left in place up to 7 days, depending on exudates level and clinical condition of the wound.
Dressing Removal:
• To remove Pharmagel, use tweezers, forceps or a gloved hand to gently lift the dressing away.
