New NICE Medical Technologies Guidance announced for the use of Leukomed Sorbact in caesarean section and vascular surgery Leukomed Sorbact is intended for use in management of clean, contaminated, colonized or infected dry to low-exuding wounds, such as surgical wounds and traumatic wounds, e.g., lacerations, cuts and abrasions. Product benefits Bacteria and fungi-binding This dressing is coated with a hydrophobic fatty acid ester which attracts bacteria and are removed with each dressing change. Reduced risk of infection Prophylactic use of Leukomed Sorbact reduces the risk of infections. Protects from bacteria and microorganisms The innovative design makes Sorbact effective against antibiotic-resistant microorganisms; fungi; and different types of bacteria. Manages dry to low exuding wounds Well suited to postoperative and traumatic dry to low-exuding wounds including surgical incisions; lacerations; cuts and abrasions; dehisced wounds; and minor burns. How to use 1) Hold the wound dressing at the blue handling tape. Then remove the top layer of the first release liner (labelled no. 1). 2) Hold the blue handling tape with the adhesive facing towards the wound or device and apply half of the transparent dressing accurately over the desired location. Now remove the second layer of release liner (also labelled no. 1). 3) Carefully press the transparent film onto the skin, especially around the edges. Full skin contact ensures that the dressing is waterproof and a bacterial barrier. 4) Now remove the top application film by lifting the edge of the blue handling tape (labelled no. 2) and carefully peeling off this top layer.
