Smith & Nephew Wound Management

Allevyn Ag. This new silver hydrocellular foam dressing is designed to simplify the use of silver in wound care. Creating a moist environment to promote faster wound healing, the dressing provides sustained, controlled silver release at bactericidal levels and effectively absorbs exudate for up to 7 days, minimizing messy dressing changes, according to the manufacturer. Allevyn Ag is available in 3 shapes-adhesive, nonadhesive (sealed and shaped), and sacrum-and multiple sizes.
