Cutimed Siltec B is a silicone coated, sterile, absorbent polyurethane foam dressing with superabsorbent stripes to additionally absorb and lock wound exudate. The wound contact surface allows adherence to the periwound skin but not to the moist wound bed or newly formed epithelial tissue. The additional silicone adhesive border allows secure and gentle fixation. Self-adhesive silicone border The self-adhesive silicone border, with low allergy potential, keeps the dressing in place and allows an easy application. Good flexibility and conformability towards various body parts. The dressings also can be cut to size.
The highly breathable, water-repellent backing protects the dressing and even makes it possible to take a shower without removing or changing the dressing. Reliable exudate management The vertical absorption makes sure exudate is absorbed and kept inside the dressing – even under compression. Superabsorbent stripes additionally support the absorption capacity.
The skin-friendly, perforated silicone wound contact layer prevents adherence to newly formed tissue, protects wound margins and ensures atraumatic, pain-reduced dressing changes.

Cutimed® Siltec® B is packaged for single use. Do not re-use or re-sterilize as there is a risk of transmission of body fluids or contaminated tissue between patients. Do not use if the pouch is already open or damaged as the sterility of the device is guaranteed only when the pouch is unopened and undamaged prior to use. Discard open or unused material. Do not use with oxidizing solutions such as hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide. For external use only. The wound should be inspected for signs of infection and treated according to clinical practice if required. In rare cases skin reactions (e.g.redness, itching) may occur. If the treated condition deteriorates, fails to improve or if a side effect is observed, consult a physician or an appropriate healthcare professional.
