What is 5466020977-Box Allevyn Ag Non-adhesive Absorbent Silver Barrier Hydrocellular Dressing 2 X 2?

The 5466020977-Box Allevyn Ag Non-adhesive Absorbent Silver Barrier Hydrocellular Dressing 2 X 2 is a sterile, single-use wound care solution designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds at risk of infection. Infused with ionic silver, it provides antimicrobial protection while maintaining a moist healing environment. Its hydrocellular foam core locks in fluid, reducing leakage and odor, and the non-adhesive border minimizes trauma during dressing changes. The 2-inch by 2-inch square size offers precise coverage for small to medium wounds.

Key features

• Silver Antimicrobial — Ionic silver helps control bioburden in infected or high-risk wounds.
• Highly Absorbent Foam Core — Rapidly absorbs and retains exudate to prevent maceration.
• Non-adhesive Design — Gentle on periwound skin; suitable for fragile or sensitive tissue.
• Barrier Protection — Semi-permeable film backing blocks bacteria and contaminants.
• Profiled Edges — Conformable edges reduce edge roll and improve wear time.
• Moist Wound Healing — Supports autolytic debridement and granulation tissue formation.
• Sterile Packaging — Ready for clinical or home use without additional prep.
