Answer: Silverlon Antimicrobial Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing should be applied in the following manner:
Prior to application, debride when necessary and irrigate the wound site in accordance with standard protocols.
Remove excess solution from surrounding skin.
Select a size of Silverlon Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing that is slightly larger than the wound. Cut using clean scissors or fold the dressing to fit the wound, either side down.
Loosely pack deep wounds, ensuring the dressing does not overlap the wound margins.
For heavily exudating wounds, apply to the wound bed directly.
For wounds with minimal exudate, apply to a sterile water or saline-moistened wound bed.
