MANUFACTURER: MEDLINE INDUSTRIES.INDICATIONS: Maxorb Extra Ag Silver Alginate, size: 12 x 1 inch, rope is a controlled release, non cytotoxic ionic silver with exceptional fluid handling. It is a non woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and ionic silver. Exposure to wound exudate dissolves the silver and stimulates the release of silver ions. As more fluid is absorbed over time, more silver ions are released, creating a controlled-release antimicrobial effect. The silver ions protect from a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including MRSA and VRE. It is biocompatible, non-irritating, non-sensitizing and will not harm new granulation tissue.Applying Maxorb Extra Ag- Cleanse wound with normal saline or wound cleanser and gently dry surrounding area.
- Apply dressing to moist wound surface. Loosely pack for deeper wounds.

When to change / reapply Maxorb Extra Ag- Maxorb Extra Ag can be left in place up to 7 days, or as directed.
- Change Maxorb Extra Ag if you see fluid on the outer dressing.
