Leukomed® Sorbact®

Leukomed® Sorbact® is a sterile, hydrophobic bacteria binding post-surgical island dressing that utilizes a physical mode of action versus a chemical mode of action. Binds bacteria to the Sorbact® layer and renders the bacteria inert, and leaves no active substances in the wound.

• Bacterial and showerproof barrier
• Can be worn up to 7 days if clinical conditions allow
• For use on dry to light exudating wounds
• Sterile

Indications

Leukomed® Sorbact® can be used for all types of wounds such as: post-operative wounds, traumatic wounds, surgical incisions, lacerations, cuts, abrasions, and dehisced wounds. For low to moderate levels of exudate.

Contraindications

Do not use Leukomed® Sorbact® on patients with known sensitivity to the dressing components. If a reaction is observed, discontinue use and consult a physician. In common with all adhesive products, some cases of irritation of the skin surrounding the wound may occur. It should be noted that inappropriate use or too frequent dressing changes, particularly in patients with fragile skin, can result in skin stripping.

Mode of Use/Application

Prepare the wound according to clinical practice guidelines and ensure the surrounding skin is clean and dry. Select an appropriate dressing size for the wound. Remove Leukomed® Sorbact® from the pouch using an aseptic technique. Remove the protective film from the wound contact side of the dressing and apply the dressing. Ensure that the green wound contact layer comes into direct contact with the complete wound surface. Carefully remove the application film, using the blue handling strip. Slowly pull it backwards, in parallel to the skin to avoid lifting of the dressing.

Removal & Change Frequency

For gentle release, stretch the dressing to release adhesion. Pull one end of the dressing parallel to the skin. Do not pull up or backwards. Lifting of the dressing for inspection should be avoided. The dressing change frequency depends on the exudate levels and the overall clinical condition of the wound and the surrounding skin. Should the clinical conditions allow, the dressing can remain in place for up to 7 days.
