RespoSorb Silicone

The SAP dressing with silicone interface.

RespoSorb® Silicone is a sterile single-use absorbent dressing with a silicone interface for long-term treatment of acute and chronic exuding wounds.

RespoSorb® Silicone absorbs and retains up to high levels of exudate in the absorbent pad. The micro-adherent, silicone interface prevents the dressing from slipping and facilitates its application. The dressing changes can be carried out atraumatically and almost painlessly.

RespoSorb® Silicone can be used in context of compression therapy.

Application

Application

  • Cleanse the wound according to clinical practice. Make sure that the surrounding skin is dry and clean to ensure that the dressing sticks.
  • Select the dressing’s size and shape, so that the dressing exceeds the wound edges by approx. 1 to 2 cm.
  • Do not cut the dressing.
  • Remove the protective sheets according to the application instructions. Apply the adherent side to the wound with the green side facing away.
  • Secure the dressing using e.g. a Peha-haft bandage or any other suitable fixation, or, if necessary, with compression bandages as instructed by a clinician.
  • The dressing can remain on the wound for up to 7 days, depending on the condition of the wound and the clinician’s instructions.
  • The dressing must be changed if clinically indicated or when exudate approaches the edge of the dressing.
