Clinicians will now have the effective exudate management and anti-shrinkage properties of the Durafiber dressings with the addition of a broad-spectrum antimicrobial.

Smith & Nephew advanced wound management interim president North America Robin Carlstein noted Durafiber Ag is strong when wet – a key attribute for ease of use for gelling fiber dressings.

"The DURAFIBER portfolio facilitates clean, cost-effective, one-piece dressing removal continuing on the Smith & Nephew commitment to deliver consistent clinical and economic benefits for wound care," Carlstein added.
