Product benefits
Prevents and treats wound infections
Sorbact Technology dressings reduce bioburden and support effective wound healing, with no known contraindications and low risk of allergies1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
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.
Effective against most common resistant pathogens
In vitro tests show that Sorbact Technology dressings are able to inhibit the growth of the Top 5 WHO pathogens7.
Skin-friendly and adjustable borders
Skin-friendly silicone adhesive borders that minimize trauma and pain for the patient during dressing changes8.
Waterproof and breathable backing film
The film provides protection against external contamination and allows excess fluid to evaporate.

How to use
1. Prepare the wound and surrounding skin according to local clinical practice. Ensure that the surrounding skin is clean and dry.
2. Select an appropriate dressing size and shape that covers the wound and is suitable for the anatomical location. The wound pad should overlap the wound margins. (A) Do not cut the dressing.
3. Remove the dressing from the peel pouch using an aseptic technique.
4. Remove the protective film (B) from the dressing and apply the dressing to the wound. Ensure that the Sorbact wound contact layer comes into direct contact with the complete wound surface to allow microorganisms to bind to the dressing.(C)
5. Avoid stretching the dressing.
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
Gently remove Cutimed Siltec Sorbact B from the wound and discard.
