3M™ Kerramax Care™ dressing is a sterile, super-absorbent dressing for use on moderate to highly exuding wounds. Absorbs exudate and locks it away inside the dressing, helping to reduce skin maceration. High absorption and retention can enable fewer dressing changes and minimize disturbance to the wound bed.

Clean the wound according to local protocols. Select an appropriate dressing size. The dressing pad needs to overlap the edge of the wound. Open the pack and lay the sterile pad onto the wound. Either side of the sterile pad may be used. Lightly cover with a bandage to secure the dressing.
Check the dressing at regular intervals and change according to the clinical condition of the wound, or when saturated. If the condition of the wound deteriorates, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. 3M™ Kerramax Care™ Super-Absorbent Dressing can be left in place for up to seven days. However, this depends upon the condition of the wound and the skin in the periwound area.
