Cutimed Sorbact Wound Contact Layer

Cutimed Sorbact is the first wound dressing that binds bacteria irreversibly without a chemically active agent. A Cutimed Sorbact dressing is coated with a fatty acid derivative (DACC) giving the dressing their highly hydrophobic properties. In the moist environment of an infected wound, bacteria are therefore attracted to the dressing and become bound to it. Hence removing the dressing also removes the captured bacteria which cannot reproduce or multiply whilst attached to the DACC. For all unclean, colonised and infected exuding wounds. Features: No development of microbial resistance because hydrophobic interaction is vital for bacteria and fungi to exist No risk of allergies against the fatty acid derivative DACC No contraindications can be used during pregnancy, breastfeeding and on children Each dressing is 8'' x 8'' One (1) box of 10 dressings

Cutimed Sorbact Wound Contact Layer 8 X 8 In. The Cutimed® Sorbact® wound contact layer is applied onto the wound to provide a non-adherent layer between the wound and the secondary absorbent dressing. The layer’s special coating creates a strong water-repellent property which helps to inactivate and physically bind wound bacteria to the dressing itself. With each dressing change the bound bacteria are removed and expelled from the wound, eliminating one of the principle barriers to wound healing. Indications for use include: All types of contaminated, colonized or infected exudating wounds, such as venous leg, arterial, diabetic and pressure ulcers Shallow wounds and under compression Size - 8 X 8 In. - SKU: BSNM2721
