Covidien-Kendall AMD Antimicrobial Foam Dressings with Top Sheet Box Or Case

Kendall AMD antimicrobial foam dressings have been developed to support your efforts in managing both moisture and bacterial balance while saving money. The dressing is an open cell polyurethane foam dressing and is impregnated with 0.5% Polyhexamethylene Biguanide (PHMB), a highly effective, low toxicity antiseptic. The dressings are effective against gram positive and gram-negative bacteria. They also work against fungi and yeast. Kendall AMD antimicrobial foam dressings are uniquely engineered to simultaneously manage moisture and bacteria thus promoting an ideal, moist wound healing environment. A micro-structured, open-cell surface that absorbs exudate. Vertical wicking action that moves fluid into foam core. A dense core that maximizes retention of exudate.
