Characteristics: 10 cm square sterile dressing with hydrofibre technology and ionic silver; absorbs and retains wound fluid by forming a cohesive gel; suitable for moderate to heavily exuding acute and chronic wounds (eg leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds); single‑use and compatible with a variety of secondary dressings.
Aquacel Ag Ext 10cmsq is an antimicrobial wound dressing designed for the management of moderately to heavily exuding acute and chronic wounds. It is recommended for people with wounds at risk of, or showing signs of, infection — including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, surgical wounds and superficial burns — where effective fluid handling and bacterial control are required.
This dressing combines highly absorbent Hydrofiber technology with proven ionic silver to reduce wound bioburden while maintaining a moist healing environment. It conforms closely to the wound bed, minimising dead space and leakage, and forms a cohesive gel on contact with exudate to aid atraumatic removal. The soft wound contact layer helps protect delicate tissue and is compatible with a range of secondary dressings for flexible care options.
Composition: a Hydrofiber (sodium carboxymethylcellulose) primary dressing enhanced with ionic silver for antimicrobial activity, plus a gentle silicone wound contact surface. Supplied as a 10 cm² sterile dressing intended for single use.
Conclusion: Aquacel Ag Ext 10cmsq offers clinicians and patients an effective, easy-to-apply solution for infected or at-risk exuding wounds, combining strong fluid management with antimicrobial action and gentle removal. Follow local clinical guidelines for dressing selection and change frequency.
