Directions for use
  • Cleanse wound with sterile water, distilled water, or normal saline, removing necrotic debris or eschar as needed per local protocol.
  • Select the size of dressing that covers the wound, but does not overlap the wound margins.
  • Apply pad to wound with the gray (silver) side of pad toward the wound.For heavily exudating wounds, apply the dressing directly to the wound bed; loosely pack deep wounds, ensuring that the dressing does not overlap the wound margins.
  • For lightly exudating wounds, moisten the wound bed with sterile water, distilled water or normal saline before applying the dressing.
  • Cover and secure with non-occlusive secondary dressing per local protocol.
  • Remove Silverlon CA Dressing when saturated or when local wound care practice dictates.
  • Silverlon CA Dressings may be used for 7 days; frequency of dressing change will depend on patient condition and the level of wound exudates.
    • Initially, it might be necessary to change the dressing every 24 hours.
  • To remove Silverlon CA Dressing, first remove the outer secondary dressing per local protocol. Then gently lift the edges of the Silverlon CA dressing.
    • If the wound appears dry, or sticking of the dressing occurs, moisten Silverlon CA Dressing with sterile water, distilled water, or normal saline until the dressing can be easily removed by gently lifting the corners.
  • Irrigate the wound per local protocol after dressing removal.
