JumpStart, 4" x 4" Antimicrobial Wound Dressing

JumpStart Antimicrobial Wound Dressing 4'' x 4'', (10 cm x 10 cm)

Finished Product

ABS-4004

JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressings are composed of advanced microcurrent-generating technology used for the management of surgical incision sites. Microcell batteries made of elemental silver and zinc generate an electrical current when activated by conductive fluids, such as wound exudate, water-based wound hydrogels, saline, or water. This microcurrent is designed to support the body's natural electrical healing process and provide antimicrobial protection to assist with wound healing. JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressing's technology has demonstrated broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against antibiotic-resistant strains of wound isolates within 24 hours.

JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressing is an advanced microcurrent-generating dressing for the management of surgical incision sites. Microcell batteries made of elemental silver and zinc generate an electrical current when activated by conductive fluids, such as wound exudate, water-based wound hydrogels, or saline. These microcell batteries create microcurrents to support the body's natural electrical healing process and to provide antimicrobial protection to assist with wound healing. JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressing has demonstrated broad-spectrum bactericidal activity in the first 24 hours against antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria isolated from infected wounds.1-3 JumpStart dressings are available in a variety of configurations and sizes to best contour and fit various surgical insicion sites.
