SurgiClear™ Antimicrobial Clear Silicone Surgical Dressing
SurgiClear is the first clear antimicrobial silicone surgical dressing that combines silver and chlorhexidine to provide broad spectrum antimicrobial activity for 7 days. SurgiClear is the only antimicrobial surgical dressing in the market to meet current FDA standards for the antimicrobial claim “greater than 4 log reduction”. The soft skin silicone adhesive provides maximum patient comfort, will not macerate or damage the skin, and has the potential to reduce keloid scarring.
SurgiClear may be used as a wound dressing in direct contact with many wound types, surgical incision sites, graft sites, and donor sites, and for securing medical devices to the skin.
The dressing is customizable to many sizes and is currently available in the following configurations:
