Smith & Nephew’s Advanced Wound Management division has announced the launch of its new product, ACTICOAT Flex, to expand the ACTICOAT range. Designed to support physicians dealing with injuries at high risk of infection, the product utilizes the Silcryst(R) nano-crystalline silver technology. It is highly conformable – ideal for awkward anatomical areas such as face and hands to improve patient comfort during wear. The product will be available in the markets of USA and EU by early 2009.
