Frequently asked questions

Does this dressing handle high levels of fluid?

Yes, it is specifically engineered for complex, heavily exuding wounds. It utilizes advanced absorptive polymers that effectively capture and lock in high volumes of fluid to maintain a clean healing environment.

Is this dressing safe for patients with sensitive skin?

Absolutely. The KerraMax Care dressing is adhesive-free, making it an excellent choice for patients with fragile or sensitive skin who might otherwise experience irritation from traditional adhesive borders.

How does the dressing prevent leaks?

The dressing is built with a heat-sealed border specifically designed to contain captured exudate, ensuring it remains within the dressing and preventing lateral leakage during use.

Will this dressing fit around difficult body contours?

Yes, its nonwoven, flexible structure is highly conformable. It is designed to adapt easily to various body shapes and contours, ensuring the dressing stays in contact with the wound site.

What is the benefit of the wicking layer?

The specialized wicking layer is crucial for performance: it pulls fluid away from the wound bed and distributes it both horizontally and vertically. This ensures the entire core of the dressing is used, maximizing its total absorption capacity.

Do I need to secure this with other bandages?

Because this is a non-adhesive dressing, it is highly recommended to use it in conjunction with secondary retention dressings, wraps, or bandages to keep the pad securely in place.

Is the material gentle on the wound site?

Yes, the dressing is made of a soft, nonwoven material that is designed to be breathable and gentle on the skin, prioritizing patient comfort while managing moisture.

Does it help prevent skin maceration?

By rapidly wicking moisture away from the wound and locking it into the core, the dressing prevents the surrounding skin from becoming overly damp, which significantly reduces the risk of maceration.

Are these dressings provided in sterile condition?

Yes, all KerraMax Care Super Absorbent Dressings are supplied sterile to ensure safety and hygiene for clinical or home-care wound management.

Can this be used for home-care settings?

Certainly. While it is built to professional clinical standards, its user-friendly design makes it highly suitable for home-care environments where advanced management of heavily exuding wounds is required.
