Discover the Difference: Explore how SilverStream transforms chronic, infected, and non-infected wounds with faster healing, reduced hospital stays, and superior outcomes

SilverStream has demonstrated significant improvement in chronic, infected, and non-infected wound care compared to conventional methods, such as Povidone-Iodine, Super Oxidized Solution, and others.

The advanced formulation of SilverStream not only accelerates healing rates but also offers superior infection control, as evidenced by multiple studies.

Patients Treated with SilverStream Showed:
  • Greater reductions in ulcer size
  • Higher response rate to treatment
  • Superior complete healing rate
  • Enhanced granulation tissue formation and significant reductions in pus discharge, which are critical for preparing wounds for successful skin grafting.

These factors contributed to higher rates of complete wound closure.

Successful Graft Uptake with SilverStream

The effectiveness of SilverStream compared to traditional treatments like Povidone-Iodine is evident in the chart below. Key wound healing parameters, such as successful graft uptake and granulation tissue formation, showcase the clear advantages of using SilverStream, particularly in pre-surgical wound preparation.

  • Enhanced granulation tissue formation and significant reductions in pus discharge are vital steps in preparing wounds for successful skin grafting.
  • Granulation tissue provides a healthy, vascularized bed necessary for graft adherence, while minimizing pus discharge reduces infection risks, promoting a clean wound environment.
  • This preparation is critical for ensuring successful graft uptake, as a well-prepared wound bed enhances graft survival and integration, leading to better healing outcomes.
  • Addressing these factors pre-surgically is essential for optimizing the conditions under which skin grafts are applied, ultimately improving patient recovery and reducing the likelihood of complications.
SilverStream Consistently Outperformed Conventional Dressings

In the treatment of various types of wounds, including chronic ulcers and burns. The key findings across multiple studies highlight the superiority of SilverStream in several crucial aspects of wound care.

Infection Control: SilverStream demonstrated superior infection control capabilities, with a higher rate of negative bacterial cultures compared to conventional dressings. For instance, on the 14th day, 75% of patients in the SilverStream group had a negative culture, compared to 34% in the conventional dressing group3

Additional Benefits: Significant reduction in analgesic requirements, wound extension, and weeping (p < 0.001) compared to control treatments.
