TLC-Ag matrix with sliver promotes healing and atraumatic, pain-free removal2
Proven Efficacy
The Largest Observational Study ever conducted for a silver dressing6
2270 patients including 77 under the age of 18 years old
After only 2 weeks, 90.6% of the wounds treated demonstrated improvement of the healing process
UrgoClean Ag effectively reduced exudate level by 70%
Over three weeks, there was a 79% increase in healthy granulation tissue and showing a significant reduction in slough & necrotic tissue
No intolerance to the dressing was documented
In a RCT, UrgoClean’s charged-fiber technology showed +50% greater debridement of slough compared to Hydrofiber® technology5

Dressing Removal
How to use
Step 1:Clean the wound following your cleansing protocol, such as Vashe® Wound Solution. Do not moisten UrgoClean Ag. Step 2:Pat the wound dry with a sterile gauze. Step 3: When appropriate, maintain a sharp debridement protocol as needed. Step 4:Cut or fenestrate as needed.
Step 5: Apply the brown, diamond-pattern side of the dressing to the wound. Step 6:Cover with a secondary dressing appropriate for wound type, level of exudate, and the location (Drawtex® for instance). Step 7: Replace the dressing every 1 to 3 days, but it can be left in place for up to 7 days. Adjust according to the clinical assessment of the wound and the level of exudate.
