Improve patient quality of life and reduce carer distress by eliminating odours with Clinisorb dressings, designed to use activated charcoal to absorb toxins as a result of bacterial metabolism.
Clinisorb dressings can be used on many wounds, such as pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot and fungating wounds, it is also suitable for moderately and lightly exuding wounds.
Traditionally, it has been believed that CliniSorb should only be used as a secondary dressing and that its effectiveness would be reduced when it became wet. Hampton concluded from a pilot study carried out on 20 patients that those nurses who used CliniSorb as a primary layer commented that malodour either improved or remained the same. Therefore using CliniSorb as a primary layer does not affect the malodour controlling properties of the charcoal dressing.
