Comfort and Care:
Excessive Exudate and Fragile Skin

Managing wound exudate while protecting the surrounding skin is a daily challenge in clinical practice. Exudate is a common wound symptom, particularly in chronic ones. If not properly managed, exudate can lead to complications such as maceration and increased odour.

Maceration occurs when excessive moisture damages the surrounding skin, which can make periwound skin more sensitive and fragile. This means it may require additional protection to prevent further breakdown, pain or even delay the wound healing process.

A recent survey of patients and clinicians found that pain is the most distressing symptom associated with wounds. While some pain is a normal part of the healing process, it is sometimes associated with dressing changes. This can lead to fear, loss of trust in clinicians and resistance to treatment, ultimately making the wound care experience more challenging for both patients and healthcare professionals.

Patient and Clinician Perspectives 

C-Sorb Silicone Border’s Key Benefits

Advanced Absorption

Rapidly absorbs and locks away high levels of exudate in the superabsorbent core, where it is dispersed evenly to minimise any uncomfortable bulking.

Prevents Maceration

Uniquely designed with silicone just across the border to ensure rapid exudate absorption into the superabsorbent core.

Superior Comfort

The dressing’s conformability and soft contact layer enable easy application and flexibility during use, helping improve patient comfort.

C-Sorb Silicone Border can be used as either a primary or secondary dressing. Its easy-to-use design, even fluid dispersion and dependable protection from leaks and odour, make it suitable for self-caring patients to use under compression hosiery and wraps.
