3M Health Care is now Solventum. The same products you know and trust, now under a new brand.
Solventum (Formerly 3M) Kerracel™ Gelling Fiber Dressing is a primary wound contact dressing with a high absorption capacity for the management of moderately to highly exuding, acute and chronic, deep or shallow wounds. Made from 100% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) fibers, Kerracel Dressing absorbs and retains high levels of exudate, forming a gel which conforms to the wound bed and supports a moist wound healing environment. As fluid is absorbed vertically and locked away, peri-wound skin is protected, helping to avoid maceration. The unstitched design aids by micro-contouring to the wound bed, minimizing dead space where bacteria can proliferate. Conformability aids ease of application, whilst integrity when wet helps to facilitate integral removal.
Cleanse the wound and skin in accordance with local protocols
Select an appropriate dressing size ensuring the dressing overlaps the wound
Lay the sterile dressing onto the wound – either size can be used
Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing
This product is part of Solventum’s (Formerly 3M) comprehensive plan for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) and venous leg ulcers (VLU). Biofilm, present in greater than 70% of chronic wounds, causes persistent inflammation and poor wound healing. Wound bed preparation, including the management of biofilm, is an essential element in treating these often-stubborn conditions.
