Cutimed® Sorbact® Gel Dressing

is a non-absorbent bacteria and fungi binding wound dressing, based on Sorbact® Technology. It consists of a Sorbact® DACC™-coated wound contact layer covered with a hydrogel containing carbomer and propylene glycol (10%). Cutimed Sorbact Gel hydrates and donates moisture to the wound bed and facilitates autolytic debridement.

  • Treats and helps to prevent wound infections
  • Safe removal of bacteria, fungi and endotoxins
  • Effective against most common resistant pathogens 

Intended Purpose

Indications: Cutimed Sorbact Gel is intended for use in management of clean, contaminated, colonized or infected dry to exuding wounds, such as surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, burns, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and leg ulcers. It  can be used on both superficial and deep wounds. For managing exudate, Cutimed Sorbact Gel should be used together with a moisture preserving secondary dressing appropriate for the exudate level.

Wear time: Should the clinical condition allow, the dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days.

How to use

Image showing how to apply Cutimed® Sorbact® Gel Dressing
1. Prepare the wound and surrounding skin according to local clinical practice.
2. Select an appropriate dressing size.
3. Remove the dressing from the peel pouch using an aseptic technique.
4. If the dressing is cut, use an aseptic technique.
5. Apply the dressing. Ensure that the dressing comes into direct contact with the complete wound surface to allow microorganisms to bind to the dressing. The dressing should not overlap the surrounding skin. Avoid dense packing when used in deep wounds.
6. Apply a moisture preserving secondary dressing appropriate for the exudate level, such as foam dressing, absorbent pad or film dressing, and fixate.
7. 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.
