Indications

Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B is indicated for use in the management of low to moderate exudating partial- to full-thickness wounds (including clean, colonized, contaminated, or infected wounds): chronic wounds (venous and arterial ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and pressure injuries), postoperative dehisced wounds and traumatic wounds.

Contraindications

Do not use Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B on dry wounds or cavity wounds. Do not use on patients with known sensitivity to the dressing components.

Warnings and Precautions

Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B is packaged for single use. Do not re-use or re-sterilize as there is a risk of cross-contamination. Do not use if pouch is opened or damaged. Discard any open dressings. Frequency of dressing change of Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B is dependent upon the wound condition and exudate level. Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B can remain in place for up to four days.
When in contact with wound exudate, the highly absorbent hydropolymer matrix changes from yellow to brown, indicating the dressing has become saturated. When exudate absorption is observed at 1cm (3/8") from matrix edge, maximum absorption has been reached and dressing should be changed.
Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B is suitable for use in combination with low pressure compression therapy for contaminated, colonized or infected exuding wounds.
Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B should not be cut to shape wound. Avoid overlapping two or more Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B dressings.
Do not use Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B in combination with ointments or creams.

Storage Requirements

Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B should be stored in dry conditions below 25°C (77°F).

Mode of Use/Application

Cleanse the wound and select appropriate dressing size. For best results, make sure Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B overlaps the wound margins by at least 2cm. Remove the protective film and apply the green adhesive side of the dressing to the wound. Depending on the wound location it may be appropriate to apply additional dressing fixation.

Removal & Change Frequency

Cutimed® Sorbact® Hydroactive B has a four-day maximum wear time. The dressing should be changed when it becomes cloudy or opaque from fluid absorption.
