Cutimed® Sorbion® Border is a bordered, sterile, hydroactive, gel-forming, self-adhesive, superabsorbent wound dressing, offering atraumatic dressing changes. The dressing consists of a strong water-retaining superabsorbent core, a wound contact layer from a hypoallergenic polypropylene, a silicone adhesive border and a breathable, waterproof backing from polyurethane which allows the ability to shower.
Indications: Cutimed® Sorbion® Border is intended for the treatment of exudating wounds with moderate to excessive exudate levels such as pressure injuries, venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and other wounds healing through secondary intention, oozing laparotomy wounds, exulcerating carcinomas, postoperative wound dehiscence and similar exudating wounds.
Wear time: Cutimed® Sorbion® Border should be changed as often as clinically indicated, must be not fully saturated. It can remain in place for heavily exuding wounds, up to 4 days. For wounds with moderate exudation, the dressing wearing time can be extended for up to 7 days.
1. Before applying the dressing, disinfect hands and use gloves. Cleanse the wound according to standard procedures. If necessary, irrigate the wound and remove leftover cleansing solution afterwards.
2. Select a suitable dressing size, so that the dressing pad of Cutimed® Sorbion® Border overlaps with the wound edges at least by 1cm/0.4inch.
3. Remove release liners, do not touch the wound pad.
4. Apply the dressing towards the wound. Apply the white, unprinted side of the product facing the wound.
5. Gently press the adhesive border to the intact skin to secure the dressing.
6. Avoid stretching the dressing.
