What is Manuka Dressing ND 10x100cm Sterile Roll 1 unit Kruuse?

The **Kruuse Manuka ND Dressing 10x100cm Sterile Roll 1 unit** is a non-adherent mesh dressing impregnated with Manuka honey, from the Kruuse brand. It is designed for the advanced treatment of wounds in dogs and cats, providing an optimal environment for healing. Its main benefit is creating a protective barrier that promotes healing in chronic or acute wounds , thanks to the properties of Manuka honey.

Characteristics and benefits

• Non-adherent mesh: It minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes, facilitating handling without damaging regenerating tissue.
• Manuka honey: It offers natural antimicrobial properties that help control the bacterial load in the wound.
• Sterile roll format: It allows you to cut the exact length needed to fit wounds of different sizes, reducing waste.
• ND Material (Non-Dressing): Designed to not stick to the wound bed, maintaining a moist environment ideal for healing.
• Use in complex wounds: Indicated for wounds with exudate, ulcers or burns, where a dressing that does not irritate the edges is required.

How to use

To use the Manuka ND dressing, clean the wound with sterile saline solution or as directed by your veterinarian. Cut the roll to the required size, ensuring it completely covers the wound without extending beyond the healthy edges. Apply the dressing directly to the wound and secure it with a secondary dressing (gauze and a cohesive bandage). Change the dressing every 24–48 hours or as needed, depending on the wound's healing process and your veterinarian's recommendations. See the package insert for detailed application and removal instructions.

Indicated for

This product is indicated for dogs and cats with superficial or deep wounds, such as surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, burns, abrasions, or infected wounds. It is especially useful in cases of wounds that do not heal properly with conventional dressings.

FAQ

Can I use this dressing on my dog's open wounds?

Yes, the Manuka ND dressing is designed for open wounds, as its non-adherent mesh and Manuka honey help maintain a moist and clean environment, promoting healing. Always consult your veterinarian before applying any treatment to open wounds.

Is it safe for cats with wounds?

Yes, it's safe for cats, provided it's used under veterinary supervision. Manuka honey is biocompatible and non-toxic, but it's important to ensure the cat doesn't lick the dressing, as it could ingest some of the material. Use a secondary dressing for added protection.

How often should I change the dressing?

The recommended dressing change frequency is every 24-48 hours, depending on the level of exudate and the wound's progress. If the dressing becomes saturated with fluid or detaches, change it sooner. Always follow your veterinarian's instructions for adjusting the interval.

How do you store the roll once it's opened?

Once the sterile package is opened, the roll must be used within 24 hours to maintain sterility. If it is not used completely, discard the remainder, as it cannot be resterilized. Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

Can I cut the dressing to size?

Yes, the 10x100 cm roll format allows you to cut the exact length you need with sterile scissors. Make sure the cut is clean to avoid frayed edges that could irritate the wound.

Does this dressing replace antibiotic treatment?

No. The Manuka ND dressing is a complement to veterinary treatment, not a substitute. If the wound shows signs of infection (pus, foul odor, redness), your veterinarian may prescribe additional systemic or topical antibiotics. Always consult a professional.
