Product Overview
Cutimed Sorbact Swabs 4cm x 6cm harness innovative Sorbact® Technology. The dressing’s DACC™-coated surface binds bacteria and fungi through a hydrophobic interaction, reducing the bacterial bioburden with every dressing change. By removing pathogens and their harmful toxins, the swabs improve the wound’s healing environment without the risk of bacterial resistance. Moreover, these swabs exhibit no cytotoxicity and do not interfere with wound inspection, making them safe for use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in children.

How to Use Cutimed Sorbact Swabs 4cm x 6cm
Begin by preparing the wound and surrounding skin according to your local clinical guidelines. Choose the appropriate dressing size, and if needed, unfold the swab to ensure it adequately overlaps the wound margins. Always use an aseptic technique when removing the dressing from its peel pouch or if the dressing needs to be cut—avoid tearing it.
Apply the dressing directly onto the wound, ensuring complete contact to facilitate optimal microorganism binding. For deep wounds, you may need to unfold and gently fluff the swabs to fill the wound cavity without dense packing. Once applied, cover the dressing with a secondary dressing appropriate for the exudate level, such as a foam dressing, absorbent pad, or gelling fiber dressing. The dressing change frequency should be based on the exudate level and the condition of the wound and surrounding skin.
If the dressing adheres to the wound, moisten it carefully during removal to avoid disruption to the healing tissue. This straightforward process not only maintains a safe healing environment but also maximizes the product’s effectiveness in reducing bacterial load.
Application and Benefits for Wound Management
Cutimed Sorbact Swabs 4cm x 6cm are specifically engineered to improve wound healing conditions. By binding and removing bacteria, these swabs lower the concentration of harmful toxins and reduce the risk of infection. This mechanism is particularly effective with more pathogenic bacteria, as their hydrophobic nature increases their attraction to the dressing’s specially coated surface.
The product’s design ensures that it does not interfere with wound inspection, which is critical for assessing healing progress. It also eliminates concerns associated with traditional antimicrobial dressings, such as bacterial resistance and cytotoxicity. These features make Cutimed Sorbact Swabs 4cm x 6cm a trusted choice for healthcare professionals in Nairobi and beyond.
