KerraCel

A sterile, gelling fibre dressing made from carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The non-woven gelling fibres absorb exudate from the wound, turning them into a soft gel that maintains a moist wound management environment.

Indications

Moderately or heavily exuding wounds (chronic or acute). Can be used under compression.

Contraindications

Know allergy or hypersensitivity to CMC. Should not be used for surgical implantation or to control heavy bleeding.
