    Description

    Absorbent antimicrobial Bilaminate wound pad, made of viscose and PE fibers, laminated with HDPE silver colour net. The nonwoven layer contains silver, in form of silver sodium zirconium phosphate.

    Pharmapad silver is primary wound dressing. It should be fixed with secondary fixation dressing e.g. Protectfilm frame style or Pharmafix.

    Mechanism of action of silver

    The silver ions of silver pad are non-migratory. When silver pad was tested for zone of Inhibition, there were no inhibitions of growth around the sample but only under the sample. This means that silver ions do not leach from the pad and act only at the pad surface when they come in contact with microorganisms.
