{"title":"Actisorb","description":"\u003ch1\u003e3M Actisorb Silver Charcoal Wound Dressings\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a wound produces persistent odor and shows signs of bacterial burden, Actisorb gives clinicians a two-in-one answer: activated charcoal to trap odor-causing molecules and silver to bind bacteria and endotoxins pulled into the dressing. That combination is why Actisorb Silver 220 is a go-to for malodorous, exuding, or infected wounds like venous leg ulcers, pressure injuries, diabetic foot ulcers, and fungating lesions where smell affects a patient's dignity and quality of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach dressing is a sterile, non-adhesive charcoal pad with silver bonded to the activated carbon cloth. Because the silver stays fixed to the charcoal rather than releasing into the wound bed, Actisorb works within the dressing itself — a design many clinicians prefer for managing bioburden without leaving residue on the tissue. The non-adhesive, borderless format means you choose your own securement and adjust it to the wound and surrounding skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe stock the sizes clinicians reach for most:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2.5 x 3.75 inch (650220)\u003c\/strong\u003e — small wounds and awkward anatomical spots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4.125 x 4.125 inch (105220)\u003c\/strong\u003e — the versatile everyday size for moderate wounds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4.125 x 7.5 inch (190220)\u003c\/strong\u003e — larger surface areas and longer ulcers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few practical notes buyers ask about: apply Actisorb with the wound in full contact with the charcoal pad, and keep the dressing dry enough to stay effective — heavy exudate may call for pairing it with an absorbent secondary dressing and a fixation layer. Wear time depends on exudate level and clinical protocol, but the dressing is designed to stay in place across several days rather than requiring frequent changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure Actisorb is the right match?
