Products for the treatment and care of wounds

Sorbalgon® T is a calcium alginate non-woven wound dressing (or ribbon). In contact with sodium salts – as found in wound exudate – the alginate fibres become gelatinous creating a moist wound environment. This in turn supports the natural healing process.The non-woven structure of the dressing combined with its physical and chemical properties result in a high absorbency – particularly important in the treatment of moderate to heavily exuding wounds. The material adapts remarkably to the contours of the wound preventing dessication. The change of Sorbalgon® T is painless.
Sorbalgon may be left in-situ for extended periods (up to several days), depending on the level of wound secretion. The dressing should be changed – once it has fully turned into a gel – in accordance with nursing standards.

PermaFoam is a large-pored hydrophilic foam wound dressing that cleanses wounds quickly and effectively. The fibrin coatings of the wound are absorbed and retained along with exudate and solid materials. Upon dressing change, the wound is cleansed, granulation stimulated and epithelialisation is indirectly promoted. PermaFoam is therefore suitable for the treatment of moderately to severely exuding wounds, requiring removal of coatings and other factors that impair wound healing.

Hydrogel foam dressing
HydroTac® comfort has an adhesive border, which is coated with polyacrylate adhesive.
HydroTac® concave and HydroTac® comfort/sacral is suitable for the treatment of light to medium exuding wounds, during the granulation and epithelialisation phases.

Hydrocoll is a self-adhesive absorbent hydrocolloid wound dressing with a gas-permeable polyurethane cover which is impermeable to liquids and bacteria.

Atrauman’s fine mesh fabric of hydrophobic, polyester fibres has mesh pores, neutral ingredients leave the wound free of residues associated with paraffin and Vaseline. This together with the smooth surface structure effectively counteracts adhesion to the wound by preventing new tissue from penetrating the dressing while allowing exudate to pass through. This results in a dressing that is easy to remove with minimum patient discomfort and disturbance to wound.
Ointment contains fatty acid triglycerides, neutral fats.

Atrauman Ag is a non adherent tulle dressing containing silver with antibacterial properties for atraumatic wound treatment. Atrauman Ag works against Gram-negative as well as Gram-positive bacteria (e.g. Staphylococcus aureus including the MRSA strains).

Grassolind neutral are non-medicated paraffin gauze dressings for wound treatment, long-term use does not cause sensitization and allergies.
An ointment consists of white vaseline, diglycerol ester of mono- and dicarboxylic acids and wax.
