How often do you have to change the Cutimed Sorbact dressings?
The frequency depends on the amount of exudate and the bacterial load and varies from once a day to three times a week. A high amount of exudate will require a high frequency of dressing changes. In infected wounds, the ideal frequency is once daily, to be decreased according to how the wound improves during the treatment.
