Cutimed Sorbact Gel

Cutimed Sorbact Gel is a hydrogel-impregnated, germ-reducing wound dressing. It cleanses the wound of slough and necrotic tissue through autolytic debridement and reduces the number of microbes in the wound based on the principle of hydrophobic interaction: The special Sorbact coating gives the product strong hydrophobic (water-repellent) properties. Many pathogenic bacteria and fungi are naturally hydrophobic and therefore bind to the Sorbact fabric. Thus, with each dressing change, the number of microbes in the wound is reduced, creating optimal conditions for the natural wound healing process.

Benefits:

• No known mechanisms for the development of resistance in bacteria or fungi to Cutimed Sorbact
• no killing of bacteria and fungi, therefore no additional release of endotoxins and the associated delay in healing
• unlimited duration of use during the course of therapy
• no known contraindications

Cutimed Sorbact Gel consists of a hydrogel-impregnated acetate fiber compress with a bacteria-binding coating. Latex-free formulation. Not manufactured with natural rubber latex.

Indications:

• Cutimed Sorbact Gel is suitable for all clean, colonized, contaminated or infected wounds and is used for dry to slightly exuding wounds:
• chronic wounds (e.g. venous, arterial or diabetic ulcers and pressure ulcers)
• postoperative wounds and wound dehiscences
• traumatic wounds
• Wounds after excision of fistulas and abscesses

Dressing change:
Depending on the amount of exudate and the overall condition of the wound and the wound periwound, up to 7 days if clinical condition permits.
