PROMOGRAN PRISMA Matrix Ag

PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix is comprised of a sterile, freeze dried composite of 44% oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC), 55% collagen and 1% silver-ORC. Silver-ORC contains 25% w/w ionically bound silver, a well-known antimicrobial agent. Optimum wound environment PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix maintains a physiologically moist microenvironment at the wound surface. This environment is conducive to granulation tissue formation, epithelization and optimal wound healing. What is the role of silver in PROMOGRAN PRISMA™ Matrix? The dressing contains ionically bound silver, a well-known antimicrobial agent How it Works In the presence of exudate, PROMOGRAN™ PRISMA Matrix transforms into a soft, conformable, biodegradable gel, allowing contact with all areas of the wound. PROMOGRAN™ PRISMA Matrix maintains a physiologically moist microenvironment at the wound surface. This environment is conducive to granulation tissue formation, epithelialization and optimal wound healing. What is ORC? Cellulose is a major component of all plants.  Once oxidized, ORC (Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose) is completely bioresorbable, and readily degrades through fluid absorption and subsequent gelling.
