Kerramax Care™ Super-Absorbent Dressing - 5" x 6", 10/bx

Please note: All prices are for boxes.

The Solventum Kerramax Care™ Super-Absorbent Dressing (SKU PRD500-100) is a sterile, non-adhesive primary or secondary dressing designed for the management of moderately to highly exuding wounds. This 5 inch x 6 inch (13 cm x 15 cm) dressing features a high-capacity absorbent core with Exu-Safe™ technology, which is engineered to wick and lock away large volumes of wound fluid. Because this is the non-bordered version, it is highly versatile for use under compression bandages or on areas where a customized securement method (such as tape or film) is preferred.

Key Features

• Exu-Safe™ Technology: The super-absorbent core is designed to absorb and retain high levels of exudate, locking it vertically within the dressing to prevent lateral spread and reduce the risk of periwound skin maceration.
• Non-Adhesive Design: Lacks an integrated adhesive border, making it ideal for use on extremely fragile skin or in conjunction with specialized securement systems like compression wraps.
• Fluid Retention Under Pressure: Specifically engineered to hold absorbed fluid and sequestered bacteria even when the dressing is subjected to the pressure of compression therapy.
• Vertical Wicking Action: Rapidly pulls moisture away from the wound bed into the center of the dressing, helping to maintain a clean wound environment and protect the wound edges.
• Heat-Sealed Edges: The perimeter of the dressing is heat-sealed to prevent the leakage of super-absorbent polymers and to ensure the integrity of the dressing during use.
• Breathable and Soft: The outer layer is water-resistant to prevent strike-through while remaining breathable to support moisture vapor exchange and patient comfort.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• High-Exudate Chronic Wounds: Primary choice for managing significant drainage in pressure injuries, venous leg ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers.
• Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs): Highly effective for use as a primary dressing under multi-layer compression bandage systems.
• Large Surgical Wounds: Manages high fluid output from dehisced surgical sites or large traumatic injuries.
• First-Degree and Second-Degree Burns: Provides a high-capacity absorbent layer for burns with significant serous drainage.
• Fragile Skin Management: Since there is no adhesive, this is the safest option for patients with a high risk of Medical Adhesive Related Skin Injury (MARSI).

Important Safety Information

Do Not Cut: This dressing must not be cut. Cutting the dressing breaks the heat-sealed perimeter and the internal matrix, which will cause the super-absorbent polymers to leak into the wound bed and the dressing to fail.

Securement Required: As a non-adhesive dressing, this product requires a secondary securement method (such as medical tape, a transparent film dressing, or a compression wrap) to remain in place.
