Overview
HydraCare AG™ is a sterile, water-based amorphous hydrogel — 90% water, carried in a hydrophilic polymer with a precisely limited silver compound (maximum 0.012% w/w). It flows into the wound's geometry, donates moisture to dry and sloughy tissue, and supports autolytic debridement, while the silver acts as an in-dressing preservative inhibiting microbial growth for up to three days per application.
Distinctions
- Amorphous gel conforms to any wound geometry
- 90% water content donates and holds moisture
- Silver preservative action up to 3 days
- Promotes autolytic debridement and tissue softening
- Simple application; remains in the wound bed
Clinical Indications
First- and second-degree burns; stasis, pressure, and diabetic ulcers; lacerations, abrasions, and skin tears; surgical incision sites; device insertion sites; graft and donor sites.
Considerations
Not for third-degree burns or known silver sensitivity.
