• Activate Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressing or Drain Pad Dressing by wetting it with sterile water, distilled water, or normal saline.
• Place the Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressing or Drain Pad Dressing around the device protruding from the wound, so that the silver side of the dressing is in direct contact with the skin.
• Secure Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressing or Drain Pad Dressing in position with a transparent film dressing.
• Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressings or Drain Pad Dressings may be used for 7 days, but may require more frequent changing depending on wound condition and exudate build up.
• To remove Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressing or Drain Pad Dressings, first remove the outer dressing per local protocol, then gently lift the edges of the Silverlon Lifesaver Ag IV/ Catheter Dressing or Drain Pad Dressing.
  • If the dressing sticks to the skin, moisten the dressing as needed with sterile water, distilled water, or normal saline, until it can be easily removed by gently lifting the corners.

Rx Use

Under the supervision of a healthcare professional Silverlon Island Wound Dressings and Silverlon Wound Pad Dressings are intended for up to 7 day use for wounds such as vascular access or peripheral IV sites, orthopedic external pin sites, wound drain sites, surgical wounds (donor and graft sites, incisions), and partial to full thickness dermal ulcers (stave I-IV pressure sores, venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, diabetic ulcers).

Silverlon Island Wound Dressings and Silverlon Wound Pad Dressings are indicated for the management of infected wounds, as the silver in the dressing provides an antimicrobial barrier that may be helpful in managing these wounds. In addition, the moist wound healing environment and control of wound bacteria within the Silverlon Island Wound Dressing and Silverlon Wound Pad Dressing may help reduce the risk of wound infection and support the body’s healing process.
