ECBDEXTENDED CARE & BURN DRESSINGwith ADVANCED SILVER for Superior Performance.
ECBD is a silver wound dressing that uses a unique kind of silver technology: silver oxysalts. Silveroxysalts offer higher oxidation states of silver* (Ag2+, Ag3+) capable of interacting with microbial
DNA, proteins and lipids, as well as provide potent oxidizing action through the increased power
of Ag2+,3+ for advanced biocidal activity. Consequently, exsaltT7 has the ability to powerfully
interact with microbes without needing a high content of silver to be effective*. exsaltT7s silver
oxysalts technology, combined with a low silver content, makes the dressing less toxic* to the
wound environment and more gentle* to use. exsaltT7 has also demonstrated only a nominal
shift in pH, providing comfort for your patientswithout sacrificing biocidal activity. In addition, the
combination of unique silver technology and low silver content means the silver dressings can be
produced efficiently and at a low production cost, resulting in a cost-efficient dressing.* This means
potential cost savings for the management of wounds!
ECBD consists of two outer layers of non-adherent high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with an inner
layer of absorbent polyester, which has comparable absorbency to other synthetic fibre silver wound
dressings*. All layers are coated with silver oxysalts. ECBD can absorb five times its weight (dry
mass). If more exudate absorption is required, ECBD is compatible with other secondary dressings.
It can also be used in conjunction with other advanced wound care technologies.
Current Tactical Trauma Protocols state in extended care to change dressings every
24 hours. Consider converting to silver impregnated dressings to reduce frequency
of dressing changes. 6th Edition Journal of Special Operations Medicine 2012
training supplement. Extended Care 6c page 12.
ECBD can be placed on at the point of wounding and can remain in
place for 7 days.

High oxidation states of silver (Ag2+ and Ag3+) ha
a stronger attraction for electrons than silver in th
1+ state (Ag+), making them more likely to react w
other species to gain those electrons for balance
Hence, Ag2+ and Ag3+ oxidation states are more
active than silver Ag+ and therefore highly effectiv
killing microbes even with a low content of silver.*
