Smith & Nephew’s Advanced Wound Management division (Hull, United Kingdom), is launching two extensions to the Allevyn Ag™ range of dressings—Allevyn Ag™ Gentle Border and Allevyn Ag™ Gentle. These dressings will combine the antimicrobial protection of silver with the gentleness of silicone and soft gel adhesives that have been specifically designed to minimize patient pain and trauma to the wound at dressing removal. These two new Allevyn Ag variants are available in a range of sizes and offer patients and clinicians key benefits of antimicrobial protection to help fight infection, minimal pain during dressing changes, and superior fluid management.

The launch of the two dressings means that patients are now offered a complete range of foam dressings for infected as well as noninfected wounds, while clinicians are in the unique position of being able to receive a clinically proven and cost-effective solution for all customers’ foam dressing needs.
