Indications
Cutimed Sorbact gel is especially designed for contaminated, colonised or infected wounds which are dry or low exuding, for example
- chronic wounds, e.g. venous, arterial, or diabetic ulcers and pressure ulcers
- wounds after excision of fistulas and abscesses
- postoperative dehisced wounds
- traumatic wounds
The hydrogel component additionally promotes autolytic debridement in sloughy or partly necrotic wounds.
Instructions for use
- Clean the wound as usual and apply Cutimed Sorbact gel gently onto
the wound. Ensure direct contact with the wound surface. - Fold back any potentially overlapping material in direction of the wound.
- If desired, add remaining hydrogel from the peel pouch onto the applied dressing.
- Depending on the level of exudate, cover Cutimed Sorbact gel either
- with a transparent film dressing (i.e. Fixomull transparent or Leukomed T)
- or with an absorbent secondary dressing, such as a thin foam dressing, gauze or an absorbent pad.
