Buy Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads 10cm x 10cm 10’s Online Now in Nairobi, Kenya – Bacteria-Binding, Infection Prevention, Exudate Management
Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads are designed to provide efficient wound management. These dressing pads are specially engineered with a DACC (dialkyl carbamoyl chloride) coating that binds bacteria and fungi through hydrophobic interaction, thereby reducing the bacterial load in the wound without using chemical agents. This innovative approach not only minimizes the risk of developing bacterial resistance but also supports the natural wound-healing process.
Product Overview
Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads 10cm x 10cm come in a pack of 10’s and are ideal for managing a variety of wounds. They are suitable for clean, contaminated, colonized, or infected wounds with moderate to high exudate levels. The dressing features a green wound contact layer that ensures direct contact with the wound bed, promoting the irreversible binding of microorganisms. An absorbent core effectively manages exudate, helping to maintain a moist wound environment, which is essential for optimal healing.
These dressing pads are particularly beneficial for patients with surgical wounds, traumatic injuries, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous leg ulcers. With the ability to remain in place for up to 7 days—provided the clinical condition allows—the Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads offer a convenient and reliable solution for both acute and chronic wound care.
Key Features and Benefits
- Bacteria and Fungi Binding: The innovative DACC coating on the contact layer binds bacteria, fungi, and endotoxins irreversibly. This physical binding method avoids the use of antibiotics or antiseptics, reducing the risk of cytotoxic effects and allergic reactions.
- Effective Exudate Management: The absorbent core is designed to absorb and retain moderate to high levels of wound exudate. This helps prevent maceration of the surrounding tissue while maintaining a moist environment, which is crucial for promoting natural healing.
- Extended Wear Time: When the wound’s condition allows, the dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days, reducing the frequency of dressing changes and thereby minimizing disturbance to the healing process.
- Safe for All Patients: With no risk of bacterial resistance, cytotoxicity, or allergic reactions, these dressing pads are suitable for use in a wide range of patient groups, including children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and the elderly.
- Easy to Use: The straightforward application and removal process make Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads a user-friendly option for both healthcare professionals and patients at home.
- Natural Healing Promotion: By binding bacteria rather than killing them outright, the dressing helps maintain the integrity of the bacterial cell wall. This reduces the release of bacterial endotoxins, thereby supporting the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
How to Use Cutimed Sorbact Dressing Pads
- Wound Preparation: Begin by preparing the wound and the surrounding skin according to your local clinical practice. Clean the area thoroughly to ensure optimal adhesion and effectiveness.
- Dressing Selection: Choose the appropriate dressing size for your wound. The dressing pad should overlap the wound margins by at least 2 centimeters to ensure complete coverage.
- Aseptic Technique: Remove the dressing from its peel pouch using an aseptic technique. This minimizes the risk of introducing new contaminants to the wound.
- Application: Gently apply the dressing to the wound. Make sure that the green Sorbact-coated contact layer is in direct contact with the entire wound surface. This contact is essential for the binding process to occur.
- Fixation: Secure the dressing in place using a bandage or skin-friendly adhesive tape. This ensures that the dressing remains properly positioned throughout the wear period.
- Monitoring and Removal: The frequency of dressing changes depends on the level of exudate and the overall condition of the wound and surrounding skin. If the dressing adheres to the wound, moisten it gently to facilitate removal without causing disruption to the healing tissue.
