Intended Use
OTC: Sorbact Gel Wound Dressing is intended for use in the management of minor wounds (dry to low exuding) and to attract water repelling germs. The dressing may be used on minor scrapes, cuts, sores and burns. Rx: Sorbact Gel Wound Dressing is intended for use in the management of dry to low exuding partial to full thickness wounds (including clean, colonized, contaminated or infected wounds). The dressing is indicated for post-operative wounds, trauma wounds, shallow cavity wounds, fistulas, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and venous ulcers.
Device Story
Sorbact Gel Wound Dressing is a sterile bandage designed to manage wounds by capturing hydrophobic microorganisms. The device consists of a dressing coated with DACC (dialkyl carbamoyl chloride), a hydrophobic fatty ester acid, combined with a hydrogel. The DACC component physically attracts and binds hydrophobic microbes, reducing their concentration in the wound bed during dressing changes. The added hydrogel maintains a moist wound environment, facilitating the management of dry to low-exuding wounds. It is used in clinical or home settings for various wound types, including infected or contaminated wounds. Healthcare providers or patients apply the dressing directly to the wound; the physical binding mechanism does not rely on chemical release. The device benefits patients by reducing microbial load and supporting a moist healing environment.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Comparative performance testing demonstrated that Sorbact Gel and the predicate device have identical capabilities in binding hydrophobic microbes and water-repelling germs. Biocompatibility testing, including skin sensitization, cytotoxicity, and skin irritation, was performed, and the device passed all tests.
Technological Characteristics
Sterile bandage coated with DACC (dialkyl carbamoyl chloride), a hydrophobic fatty ester acid, combined with a hydrogel. Principle of operation is physical, hydrophobic interaction to bind microorganisms. No active energy source. Form factor is a wound dressing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of minor wounds (scrapes, cuts, sores, burns) in OTC setting, and dry to low-exuding partial to full-thickness wounds (post-op, trauma, shallow cavity, fistulas, pressure/diabetic/venous ulcers) in Rx setting.

#### Technological characteristics, comparison to predicate device:
Sorbact® Wound Dressings are sterile bandages that attract water-repelling (hydrophobic) microorganisms. The dressings are coated with DACC (dialky) carbamoyl chloride), a hydrophobic (water-repelling) fatty ester acid that atracts and reduces the overall concentration of hydrophobic microbes in a wound each time the dressing is changed. The original Sorbact Wound Dressing has been modified by the addition of a hydrogel. The hydrogel addition allows effective management of low exuding dry wounds and creates a moist wound healing environment.
The Sorbact® gel was compared against the original Sorbact wound dressing regarding the ability to bind hydrophobic microbes and water repelling germs. Results of the test were identical for both devices.
Sorbact gel was tested for biocompatibility and the following tests were conducted:
Skin Sensitization Cytotoxicity Skin Irritation
Sorbact gel passed all tests.
Conclusion: The Sorbact gel has identical features, performance and intended use as the original Sorbact wound dressing. Results of comparative performance testing against the predicate device show that Sorbact® gel is substantially equivalent to devices on the market (cleared by the 510(k) process).
