Bedsores or pressure sores are ulcers that happen on areas of skin that are under pressure for a long time. Commonly found in people who are bedridden, immobile for long, unconscious, or unable to sense pain. Constant pressure on a particular part of the skin like the buttocks, back, the heel of the feet, shoulder blades, back of the head, sides of the knees, and others, leads to pressure injuries also called decubitus ulcers. Reduction in blood supply for hours together in the skin and underlying tissues will result in the death of the skin, followed by painful red spots that eventually turn purple. Such soreness of skin when left untreated will result in infections and can take months or years to heal.

Early signs of bedsores include:

1. Part of the skin becomes discolored – people with pale skin tend to get red patches, while people with dark skin tend to get purple or blue patches
2. An area of skin that feels cooler or warmer to the touch than other areas
3. Swelling
4. A patch of skin that feels warm, spongy, or hard
5. Pus-like draining

People at risk of developing bed sores are - elderly, bedridden people, or patients with mobility issues Typically following patients are at risk:

1. Stroke/Paralysis
2. Patients on oxygen/BiPap/ ventilator
3. Post-surgical cases with limited mobility or on complete bed rest
4. Neurosurgery
5. Orthopedic patients (hip and spine surgery) on complete bed rest and/or with reduced mobility
6. Terminally ill patients e.g. coma, patients on life support systems including ventilators, etc.
7. Bedridden patients or patients in wheelchairs
8. Patients with long hospitalization

Soreze is a skin-protectant, soothing silicone gel made of silicone elastomers, polysiloxanes, starch, and silicates made using patented ‘EPB (Elastomer Potentiated Barrier)’ technology.

Soreze forms a protective thin film of silicone within 30 seconds of its application on pressure-prone areas. This film reduces friction on the skin and acts as a barrier between skin folds or between skin and clothing or bedding thus preventing bedsores. The friction-reducing property of Soreze helps protects the skin while repositioning the patient which is an important aspect of bedsore prevention. Further, the thin film formed by Soreze is long-lasting, non-allergenic, water-repellent, and breathable. Soreze not only makes skin smooth but also works well in the presence of water, sweat, or moisture.

Soreze should be used in any person who is at risk of developing bed sores or has seen redness/ discoloration of the skin or any other early symptoms of bed sores in patients. The following category of people are at risk of developing bed sores hence Soreze should be started as a preventive measure in these cases:

1. Completely bedridden
2. Any person unable to move
3. Anyone using a wheelchair for a long duration
4. Any conditions that warrant staying in the same position for a long time
5. Paralysis
6. Neuro or hip & spine surgery cases where patients are advised long-term bed rest
7. Patients on life support systems such as ventilators or any other device that restricts patient’s mobility
8. Elderly people with diabetes who are prone to skin infections

Soreze is dermatologically tested and is safe for daily use. We have tested it for biocompatibility as per US FDA guidelines and it is proven to be non-irritating and non-sensitizing. It does not contain any allergens or harmful chemicals or animal-origin ingredients.

Yes, Soreze is safe to use in Children.

No, Soreze do not contain any drug so the prescription is not required.

Yes, the ingredients are safe for use on all types of skin and on intimate areas. In fact, Soreze can be used for the prevention of Incontinence associated dermatitis caused due to frequent use of adult diapers.

No, Soreze is preventative and not a treatment of bed sore, do not apply on open skin or open wounds. However, Soreze can be used in the case of grade 1 bedsores where the skin has started discoloring or there is redness, pain, and discomfort in pressure-prone areas.

Yes, Soreze will create a barrier film on skin areas affected due to redness or rashes or skin irritation and prevent it from developing into bedsore at the same time allowing the skin to rejuvenate.

No, Soreze is not a treatment for Bed Sores it helps in prevention. However, Soreze can be used in case of redness, irritation, pain, discomfort, or itch skin as long as the skin is intact. It creates a barrier film on skin areas affected due to redness or rashes or skin irritation and prevents it from developing into bedsore at the same time allowing the skin to rejuvenate. Do not apply on open skin or open or oozing wounds. Please consult your doctor if redness or rashes persist for more than 7 days or if wounds have formed.

Bed sores are caused by a combination of pressure, friction, and shear. Water mattresses or air beds work on pressure redistribution or pressure reduction while Soreze works by reducing friction. Both complement each other’s actions. Soreze protects skin from friction and shear while repositioning which is an important aspect of bedsore prevention or bed sore treatment.

No, the patient will still need an air mattress or water bed, or any other pressure-releasing device because Soreze works on reducing friction and not on pressure redistribution or reduction. Soreze complements the action of any pressure-releasing device and has to be used along with such devices.

We suggest 2-3 times daily. Clean and dry the pressure-prone area before applying Soreze. After application of Soreze, the thin film is not seen however it gives a smooth feel on the skin.

Yes, It’s extremely safe. We recommend applying on intact skin and on pressure-prone areas such as tail bone, heels, under the knee, shoulder, back of the head, buttocks, groin, and peri-anal, area etc.

Film formed by Soreze need not be removed, it automatically wears off. However, in case it has to be removed, it can be washed off with soap water, or any other mild cleansers. Do not rub vigorously on pressure-prone areas while washing or cleaning.

Soreze is non sterile gel. Do not use it on open wounds or on oozing and crusting skin surfaces. Avoid direct contact with eyes or mucous membranes. If irritation occurs discontinue use and consult your doctor. Keep out of reach of children. Soreze is for external use only.
