DeRoyal 46-PG12 Algidex Ag Silver Wound Packing Strip

The DeRoyal 46-PG12 Algidex Ag® Silver Wound Packing Strip is a sterile gauze packing material impregnated with silver. It measures 1/2 inch in width and 5 yards in length and is packaged with 12 strips per case. This specialized gauze is designed for wound care and offers several key features:

• Absorbs wound exudate: Effectively absorbs wound drainage, helping to keep the wound clean and promote healing.   
• Decreases wound odor: The silver in the packing helps to control odor often associated with wound drainage.
• Specially woven gauze: The unique weave of the gauze prevents raveling, linting, or fraying, minimizing the risk of foreign material remaining in the wound.   
• Cuttable to desired length: The strip can be easily cut to the desired length, allowing for customized packing of various wound sizes and shapes.   
• Antimicrobial barrier: The silver provides a quick and sustained antimicrobial barrier against a broad spectrum of wound pathogens, helping to reduce the risk of infection.
