Cutimed® Sorbion® Sana Gentle is a sterile, hydroactive, gel-forming, superabsorbent wound dressing. The atraumatic dressing consists of a strong water-retaining superabsorbent core, an in-between layer of hypoallergenic polypropylene and an outer wound contact layer made of polyethylene film with three-dimensional perforations.
Indications: Cutimed® Sorbion® Sana Gentle is intended for the treatment of wounds with low to excessive exudate levels such as pressure injuries, venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and other wounds healing through secondary intention, dehisced wounds, as well as on donor sites and fragile skin.
Wear time: Cutimed® Sorbion® Sana Gentle can remain in place for up to 7 days, depending on wound conditions and saturation of the wound dressing. It is recommended to change the dressing every 24 hours initially, moving to less frequent changes as necessary. A completely soaked dressing must always be avoided.
1. Before applying the dressing, disinfect hands and use gloves.
2. Cleanse the wound according to standard procedures. If necessary, irrigate the wound and remove leftover cleansing solution afterwards.
3. Select a suitable dressing size, so that the absorbent inner core overlaps the wound margins by at least 1 cm/0.4-inch.
4. When taking the product out of the pouch, do not touch the wound pad.
5. Apply the dressing towards the wound. Both sides of the dressing can be applied to the wound.
6. Secure the dressing after selecting an appropriate fixation for the condition of the wound surroundings and the skin. Films, medical tapes, bandages, or any other suitable fixation dressing can be used.
7. While fixating the dressing, take absorption expansion into consideration.
