Reduces bioburden in low to moderately exuding wounds
Cutimed Siltec Sorbact is a bacteria and fungi binding wound dressing, based on Sorbact Technology. It consists of a Sorbact DACC™-coated wound contact layer, combined with an absorbent polyurethane foam that contains superabsorbent stripes.
Intended purpose: Cutimed Siltec Sorbact is intended for use in management of clean, contaminated, colonized or infected low to moderate exuding wounds, such as surgical wounds and traumatic wounds. It is intended to be used on superficial wounds.
Bacteria-binding surface
The unique Sorbact surface binds bacteria from the wound, helping it to heal and preventing infection.
How to apply Cutimed Siltec Sorbact
-
Clean the wound as instructed by your vet. Choose a suitable dressing size. The dressing should overlap the edges of the wound by at least 2 cm. Remove the dressing from the packaging without touching the green Sorbact surface. Use sterile scissors if the dressing needs to be cut. Any remaining opened and unused parts of the dressing should be discarded.
-
Apply the dressing. Ensure that the green side of the dressing is in direct contact with the entire wound surface.
-
Redressing suggestions: Re-affix with gauze, thin cotton, or Softban.
-
Place cotton around the leg.
-
Place gauze around the cotton, first loosely and then gradually tighter, to stabilize the bandage. Tie with a small knot on the front of the leg or side of the tibia to ensure there is no pressure on the tendons.
-
Vetwrap: begin with the middle of the bandage, before moving downwards and then upwards. Not too tight; you should be able to fit your finger between the bandage and the leg once you have finished. Never bind Vetwrap directly to the fur, as it can injure the leg.
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. For detailed product information, contraindications, precautions and warnings, please read the applicable Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to use.
