Hartmann Atrauman AG Silver Ointment Dressing Sterile 10×10 cm – 10 pieces
For wounds with a high bacterial load or active infection, a wound dressing that does more than just cover is needed. The Hartmann Atrauman AG silver ointment dressing 5×5 cm combines the soft, non-adherent properties of a classic ointment dressing with the proven antibacterial action of elemental silver. The polyamide fibers are coated with elemental silver which, upon contact with wound exudate, releases silver ions — these bind to bacteria and neutralize them. This works not only against common bacteria, but also against gram-positive strains such as MRSA. The effect lasts up to 7 days, which limits dressing change frequency and increases patient comfort. The 10×10 cm size is the most universally applicable variant and is suitable for medium-sized wound areas such as leg ulcers, larger infected wounds, and pressure ulcers, and is used by wound care nurses, dermatologists, surgeons, and general practitioners in both primary and secondary care. Sterile, individually packaged, 10 pieces per box.
Why wound specialists choose Atrauman AG
- ✓Effective for up to 7 days — fewer dressing changes: The controlled silver release remains microbiologically active for up to 7 days. Fewer changes mean less pain for the patient, less risk of wound disturbance, and lower healthcare costs per treatment.
- ✓Effective against MRSA and gram-negative bacteria: The elemental silver demonstrably works against both gram-positive (incl. MRSA, Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative bacteria (incl. Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) — broadly applicable for infected wounds.
- ✓Non-adherent due to triglyceride ointment mass: The triglyceride-based ointment mass (paraffin-free) ensures that the dressing does not adhere to the wound surface. Dressing changes are atraumatic — less pain, less tissue damage.
- ✓Paraffin-free — no vaseline-like residues: The ointment mass contains no paraffin or vaseline, so no greasy residues are left in the wound during dressing changes. This makes cleaning easier and reduces the risk of wound contamination.
- ✓Thin and drapable for difficult anatomical locations: The thin, soft material easily conforms to body contours — ideal for wounds on joints, fingers, heels, and other difficult-to-dress areas.
- ✓Suitable as primary and supplementary dressing material: Usable as an independent wound contact layer for superficial wounds and in combination with absorbent secondary dressing material for deeper or highly exuding wounds.
Atrauman AG is also available in larger sizes for more extensive wounds. View the full range of silver ointment dressings and wound care products at KS Medical Group.
