DESCRIPTION
KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing
KerraMax Care Super Absorbent Dressing utilizes a four-layer system and wicking action to draw in and hold onto wound exudate without creating leaks or drips.
KerraMax Care Super Absorbent Dressing reduces maceration, lessens irritation to surrounding skin, won’t exacerbate existing wounds, and provides a degree of comfort, even when used in conjunction with compression bandages.
Composition
Soft Top Layer: KerraMax Care Super Absorbent Dressing begins with a non-woven, soft top layer that allows moisture to evaporate.
Wicking Layer and Absorbent Core: Underneath, a wicking layer helps move exudate to the dressing’s absorbent core layer, where the fluid can then spread out evenly both horizontally and vertically. This helps the material remain dry while aiding the wound healing process.
Fluid-Containing Base: At the base, heat-sealed material helps contain all exudate.
Free of Adhesive: The dressing won’t irritate or further damage the wound or scrape off unaffected skin.
Key Features
- One or two dressings can be applied to the affected area, depending on the size of the wound and its exudate.
- The material is ideal as a primary dressing; it stays in place when a moderate amount of pressure applied from a secondary dressing.
- KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing utilizes its full absorption capacity while preventing leaks by pressure or movement without appearing bulky. The heat-sealing border prevents further leakage.
- Bacteria and MMPs are retained away from the wound bed, preventing the risk of transmission that leads to infection.
KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing is suitable under compression therapy with the direction of a healthcare professional.
Uses
KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing is ideal for:
- Pressure Ulcers
- Leg Ulcers
- Diabetic Foot Ulcers
- Venous Leg Ulcers
How to Use KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing
- Cleanse the wound according to your standard practices and guidelines.
- Select the appropriate dressing size. The pad needs to overlap the edge of the wound. Do not cut the dressing to fit.
- Open the dressing pack and lay the sterile pad onto the wound. Either side may be used. You can stack KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressings on top of each other for additional absorption for heavy exudate.
- Inspect the dressing at regular intervals and change when the dressing it saturated. Change every 7 days otherwise.
Common Questions About KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing
Can KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing be cut to fit?
KerraMax Care Super-Absorbent Dressing should not be cut or torn. The multiple layers hold a gel core that traps exudate and bacteria from leaking and spreading infection.
This product is part of 3M’s comprehensive plan for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) and venous leg ulcers (VLU). Maintaining an optimal wound environment is an essential element in treating these often-stubborn conditions. This is done primarily through exudate management, providing protection from outside contaminates, and enabling easy application and removal.
