Why is it important to manage wound exudate?
Effectively managing wound exudate while protecting the surrounding skin is one of the most common challenges in wound care.
When exudate is not managed effectively, it can lead to complications such as maceration and malodour. Maceration occurs when excessive exudate and moisture breaks down periwound skin. This damage not only makes the skin more sensitive and fragile, but can also delay wound healing.
Patient and Clinician Perspectives
C-Sorb Superabsorbent Dressing: A High-performance Exudate Solution
C-Sorb is a high-performance superabsorbent dressing, powered by our unique Hydrophilic Dispersion Mesh (HDM) technology.
Its fast-acting drawing layers ensure the rapid transfer of exudate into the superabsorbent core, where the HDM evenly disperses exudate throughout the dressing. This prevents uncomfortable bulking and minimises excessive pressure when the dressing is used under compression.
The superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) become a gel-like substance that locks exudate and bacteria in the core, keeping it away on the wound bed.
This helps protect the wound from maceration and creates an optimal wound healing environment. C-Sorb’s fluid-repellent backing also reduces the risk of strikethrough, easing any patient concerns about leakage.
C-Sorb not only offers unmatched fluid management, but also has a soft and comfortable design that ensures maximum patient comfort.
C-Sorb Key Benefits
Advanced Absorption
Up to 60% more absorbent than other leading competitor brands, ensuring longer wear time and fewer dressing changes.
Prevents Maceration
Rapidly absorbs and retains exudate in the superabsorbent core to protect the skin from maceration and create an optimal wound healing environment.
Superior Comfort
The dressing’s soft and conformable pad enable easy application and flexibility during use, helping improve patient comfort.
Comfort for Patients
Soft and conformable
Thin and flexible pad is conformable, even on mobile and hard-to-dress areas.
Leakage-free
Excellent exudate retention capacity and fluid-repellent backing eases patient worries of any leakage.
Promotes skin integrity
Advanced absorption creates an optimal wound healing environment, protecting the wound from maceration to prevent delaying wound healing.
Fewer dressing changes
Fewer dressing changes gives patients more time to engage in normal activities and empower them with greater independence.
