Yes, C-Sorb performs well under compression. In addition, the dressing’s liquid repellent backing prevents strikethrough from soiling your compression garments and causing you further discomfort.

C-Sorb contains superabsorbent polymers (SAP). This material can absorb up to 300 times its weight in fluid, making it ideal for heavily exuding wounds. Once the fluid is absorbed, it transforms into a gel that locks in the fluid, ensuring it is evenly distributed across the dressing. This minimises leakage and discomfort.

The frequency of your dressings will be determined by the volume of fluid or exudate. Your clinician will advise you on how often your dressing should be changed.
