KerraMax Care® Superabsorbent Dressing
KerraMax Care™
Super-absorbent dressings for improving patient care:
- Exudate is absorbed and bound inside the dressing with no leakage4
- KerraMax Care is highly absorbent, resulting in less dressing changes for wet wounds2
- Nurses using KerraMax Care save up to 57% on dressing costs versus other available absorbent dressings1
- KerraMax Care retains exudate even under moderate compression preventing maceration2and is very effective at reducing proteinases (MMPs)3
- KerraMax Care can be stacked or folded to increase absorption for very wet wounds
- KerraMax Care is soft, conformable and consistent with no clumping or ridges even when fully soaked with exudate2
- Use a retention bandage to keep KerraMax Care in position on the wound4.
