Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) strategies can save lives. What is your local AMS strategy?

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing challenge that can complicate infection management and limit treatment choices. Implementing strong AMS practices is key to preserving antibiotic effectiveness.

Hydrofera Blue® antibacterial foam dressings provide a powerful alternative by managing bioburden directly at the wound site. With strong capillary action and wicking, these dressings remove harmful bacteria, slough, and exudate to support wound healing.

By adopting AMS strategies and innovative solutions like Hydrofera Blue®, clinicians can help reduce reliance on antibiotics, preserve their efficacy, and protect patient outcomes for the future.

Let’s commit to making AMS a cornerstone of wound care. Learn more at https://hydrofera.com

In a retrospective study of more than 30,000 patients*, Hydrofera Blue® dressings, when used within comprehensive wound management programs, demonstrated significant clinical and economic benefits:

- 54.6% reduction in healing time
- 75.5% reduction in labor costs
- Up to 45% fewer dressing changes per week

The study found that combining Hydrofera Blue® antibacterial foam dressings with best-practice wound care protocols can improve outcomes and reduce overall treatment costs across a variety of wound types.

As we recognize AMR Awareness Week, we spotlight Hydrofera Blue® antibacterial foam dressings, designed to manage bioburden and support wound healing without systemic antibiotics.

With strong capillary action and powerful wicking, Hydrofera Blue® pulls harmful bacteria, slough, and exudate from the wound surface. Its innovative mode of action kills bacteria within the dressing, creating a non-cytotoxic environment that promotes healing.

By integrating this wound care solution into your healthcare protocols, you can aid in the reduction of systemic antibiotic use, manage infection effectively, and preserve antibiotic efficacy for the future.

World AMR Awareness Week is here!

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global challenge that makes infections harder to treat and slows wound healing. AMR occurs when bacteria adapt and antibiotics lose their effectiveness, making infections harder to treat and increasing patient risk.​

This week, we stand together to support antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) in wound care.

At Essity - home to advanced wound care brands like Cutimed, Hydrofera Blue, and Leukoplast USA - we’re committed to delivering innovative wound care technologies that help manage bioburden, reduce reliance on systemic antibiotics, and preserve their effectiveness for the future.
