Cutimed Sorbact Anti-Microbial Hydrogel Pads (x10)

The Cutimed Sorbact Anti-Microbial Hydrogel is prepared to work in perfect harmony with Cutimed Sorbact Wound Dressings. By providing moist wound healing conditions, Cutimed Sorbact Hydrogel greatly reduces the bacterial load, by enhancing the effectiveness of the DACC technology.

Cutimed Sorbact Anti-Microbial Hydrogel is especially designed to work on wounds which are dry, or have low levels of exudate. The action of the Sorbact Hydrogel improves the process of binding micro organisms in dry, unclean, colonised and infected wounds.

Sorbact Anti-Microbial Hydrogel is naturally a sterilised product and is widely used throughout the NHS.

All pads come in packs of 10.

Cutimed Sorbact Anti-Microbial Hydrogel and Dressing, benefits and results:

• By reducing the bacterial bioburden this anti-microbial wound dressing accelerates the healing process. By removing bacteria with each dressing change, Cutimed Sorbact reduces not only their number but also the level of harmful toxins, improving the conditions for wound healing to take place.
• The more pathogenic (agressive) the bacteria the more effectively Cutimed Sorbact will remove them. This is because of another proven principle: the more virulent the bacteria, the more hydrophobic its properties will be, and consequently the stronger the attraction to the specially coated surfice of the wound dressing, away from the wound itself.
• The simple and natural way the Cutimed Sorbact works, means that none of the drawbacks of conventional antimicrobial dressings apply. For instance, there is no risk of bacteria developing resistence in the way they might with other antimicrobial dressings and antibiotic based solutions. Moreover, Cutimed Sorbact contains no cytotoxicity, does not disturb in-wound inspection and has no contra-indications. This means that Cutimed Sorbact Anti-Microbial Wound Dressing can be safely used during pregnancy, breastfeeding and on children.
• The additional  moisture from the hydrogel also promotes autolytic debridement in sloughy or partially necrotic wounds.
