TLC-Ag matrix with sliver promotes healing and atraumatic, pain-free removal2
Proven Efficacy
The Largest Observational Study ever conducted for a silver dressing6
2270 patients including 77 under the age of 18 years old
After only 2 weeks, 90.6% of the wounds treated demonstrated improvement of the healing process
UrgoClean Ag effectively reduced exudate level by 70%
Over three weeks, there was a 79% increase in healthy granulation tissue and showing a significant reduction in slough & necrotic tissue
No intolerance to the dressing was documented
In a RCT, UrgoClean’s charged-fiber technology showed +50% greater debridement of slough compared to Hydrofiber® technology5

Dressing Removal
How to use
Step 1: Cleanse the wound and surrounding tissue per your facility’s cleansing protocol (i.e., Vashe® Wound Solution). Pat dry. Step 2:Open package and remove dressing. Fenestrate dressing with scissors as needed to allow for additional drainage. Remove protective plastic covering before application. DO NOT moisten UrgoClean Ag.
Step 3: Apply UrgoClean Ag dressing by placing the sticky, brown, diamond side directly onto the wound bed, ensuring intimate contact with the wound. The UrgoClean Ag can be cut to the size of the wound or overlap onto the surrounding tissue.
Step 4: Cover UrgoClean Ag with a secondary dressing suitable to the level of exudate, such as Drawtex Hydroconductive Wound Dressing, ABD pads, gauze, etc. Step 5: ChangeUrgoClean Ag every 1–3 days depending on drainage volume. It may remain in place for up to 7 days. Wash the wound between dressing changes.
