Cutimed Sorbact Hydroactive B Hydropolymer Gel Dressing

1. Clean the wound per appropriate clinical protocol.
2. Select an appropriate dressing according to wound size. For best results, make sure Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B overlaps the wound margins by at least 2 cm.
3. Remove the protective film and apply the green adhesive side of the dressing to the wound.
4. Depending on the wound location it may be appropriate to apply additional dressing fixation.
5. Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B should be changed as often as dictated by the wound condition. As with all absorbent dressings, monitoring is required to ensure the dressing does not dry out and adhere to the wound. The dressing should be changed when it becomes cloudy or opaque from fluid absorption. At the latest after 4 days or if the exudate has reached 1 cm from the edge.
6. In wounds that show signs of clinical infection, a more frequent wound inspection is advised. In these cases, an appropriate systemic treatment should be considered.
