Leukomed Sorbact Dressing 5cmx7.2cm 3pcs is a post-surgical dressing specifically designed for the capture of bacteria. This product features absorbent dressings made from acetate or cotton fabric, which are impregnated with a derivative of fatty acids, known as DACC (dialkylcarbamoyl chloride).
This component has a high hydrophobicity and allows for the irreversible capture and elimination of pathogenic bacteria and fungi that may be present in contaminated or infected wounds, contributing to:
- Reducing bacterial load
- Creating a favorable environment for natural healing
The mechanism of action of this dressing is unique, as it:
- Inactivates microorganisms without releasing chemical agents that could interfere with the healing process
- Does not generate bacterial resistance
- Presents a low risk of allergies
- Does not cause cytotoxicity nor contains endotoxins in the wound bed
This dressing has no contraindications, allowing its use in a wide variety of patients, including:
- Children
- Pregnant women
- Nursing women
The structure of the product consists of several layers, including:
- Monosiliconated protective paper
- Polyurethane film with adhesive
- Protective plastics
- Absorbent pad
- Layer in contact with the wound that contains dialkylcarbamoyl chloride
Additionally, it is guaranteed that the dressings do not contain resins or natural rubbers, thus minimizing the risk of allergic reactions.
Leukomed Sorbact is ideal for the prevention and treatment of traumatic and post-surgical wounds that present colonization, contamination, or infection, especially those with a mild to moderate exudate.
