Biofilms in wounds can be difficult to treat and may lead to systemic infection if they persist. So, what is the best way to manage biofilms? Wound care specialists agree that managing the gap is key, and recommend the use of a conforming dressing with antimicrobial properties to combat infection. Biatain® Silicone Ag kills 99.99% of mature biofilms (shown in vitro) and delivers Ag at the wound bed. It conforms to the wound bed, absorbs vertically and retains exudate. | Coloplast Wound and Skin
