Antimicrobial properties help reduce the risk of infection by inhibiting the growth of bacteria within the wound environment. This is especially important for wounds that are at higher risk for infection or for patients with compromised immune systems. Foam dressings with broad-spectrum antibacterial agents, such as the Hydrofera Blue Ready-Transfer Foam Dressing, provide continuous protection and can absorb and retain bacteria-laden exudate. Choosing a dressing with antimicrobial properties can support faster healing and reduce complications, with several options available for different levels of antimicrobial action.
