Cutimed Sorbact Swab

• The resistance of MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staph. aureus) and VRE (vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus) against antibiotics does not change their hydrophobic properties nor their ability to bind to Cutimed Sorbact
• Cutimed Sorbact does not use any antiseptic or antibiotic substances. Hence, treatment is not linked to any risk of development of resistant strains
• The Sorbact method is safe for both patients and medical staff
• The efficacy of Cutimed Sorbact is solely based on binding and removing wound pathogens without releasing chemically active substances that might impair the healing process
• Unlike e.g. silver products, Cutimed Sorbact does not destroy bacteria. Thus, endotoxin release from dead cells is prevented, and the natural wound healing is supported

Product Description Cutimed Sorbact has been proven successfully as a non-medicated, antimicrobial treatment of colonised and infected wounds. Instead of using chemically active agents, Cutimed Sorbact employs a surprisingly simple physical principle to effectively bind and inactivate pathogenic bacteria and fungi. With every dressing change, the reduced bacterial load helps to create optimum conditions for the natural wound healing process. Directions Clean the wound area, apply the dressing to the wound, and dispose of the dressing properly. Box Contains 1 x 5 Swabs Manufacturer Contact Information Tel.: 01482 670100
