Compared to standard polyurethane foam dressings without silver, the ZeniFoam-AG offers added antimicrobial protection, reducing the need for topical antibiotics. It outperforms gauze-based dressings in exudate management and patient comfort. While more expensive than basic foams, its infection-prevention benefits can reduce overall treatment costs.
