Hartmann 10340000 - ColActive Plus Ag Silver Collagen Dressing, 4" x 4", 10/BX

The Hartmann 10330000 ColActive PLUS Ag Silver Collagen Dressing is a small-format, high-performance wound dressing designed for infection-prone and difficult-to-heal wounds. Measuring 2 inches by 2 inches, this sterile, latex-free dressing combines purified collagen with ionic silver, sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and EDTA to promote faster healing while actively reducing bacterial load.

Ideal for treating smaller wounds or localized areas, this advanced dressing supports cellular activity, maintains a moist wound environment, and provides continuous antimicrobial protection against a broad spectrum of pathogens.

Key Benefits

This dressing offers significant advantages by combining five clinically proven components into one advanced wound care solution. Collagen supports new tissue formation, silver provides antimicrobial protection, EDTA inhibits harmful protease activity, and alginate/CMC maintain moisture balance and manage exudate.

Its small size makes it ideal for precise application to smaller wounds, post-operative sites, or donor areas. The sterile, single-use packaging ensures safety, and the latex-free design minimizes allergic reaction risks.

Compatibility and Applications

The ColActive PLUS Ag Silver 2" x 2" dressing is compatible with various secondary dressings including foam, gauze, and transparent films. It is used in treating chronic and acute wounds such as diabetic ulcers, pressure injuries, venous leg ulcers, surgical sites, donor sites, and partial-thickness burns.

This product is appropriate for use in hospitals, outpatient clinics, long-term care facilities, surgical centers, and home healthcare settings under professional supervision.

Usage Guidelines

Cleanse the wound thoroughly using standard clinical procedures. Apply the 2" x 2" dressing directly to the wound bed, ensuring full contact. Secure with a suitable secondary dressing depending on the level of exudate.

Change the dressing every one to three days or as directed by a healthcare provider. Do not use in dry wounds or in patients with known sensitivities to silver or collagen. Full instructions can be found in the manufacturer's product insert.
