Symbol of looped threads to visualize the term 'pacify'

Safe removal of bacteria, fungi and endotoxins

Sorbact Technology dressings irreversibly bind and remove bacteria, without the release of active agents to the wound5. Development of bacterial or fungal resistance is not expected. 
Symbol showing crossed out pathogens, which stands for effectiveness against the most common resistant ones

Effective against most common resistant pathogens

How to use

Image showing how to apply Cutimed® Sorbact® Dressing Pad
1. Prepare the wound and surrounding skin according to local clinical practice.
2. Select an appropriate dressing size for the wound. The wound pad should overlap the wound margins by at least 2 cm. Do not cut the dressing.
3. Remove the dressing from the peel pouch using an aseptic technique.
4. Apply the dressing. Ensure that the green contact layer comes into direct contact with the complete wound surface to allow microorganisms to bind to the dressing.
5. Fixate with bandage or skin friendly tape.
6. The dressing change frequency depends on exudate levels and the overall condition of the wound and surrounding skin. Should the clinical condition allow, the dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days.
How to Remove
Should the dressing adhere to the wound, moisten the dressing to assist removal and to avoid disruption of the healing wound.
