How often should I change the bandage, i.e. apply MPPT?

MPPT should be applied once daily until the wound is clean, i.e. when the wound exudate is no longer cloudy and the wound is free of slough, pus, maceration and biofilm.
Intervals up to 2-4 days between dressing changes have been used successfully. It may, however, prolong the time required to reach a clean wound compared to daily changes.
On extremely highly exuding wounds, the MPPT layer should be changed whenever it is soaked. This will typically be between 2 and 4 times during the first 24 hours. Within approx. 24 hours generally, the exuding will have reduced enough to continue care as for any other wound in need of MPPT. As a rule of thumb, this stage is recognisable when the MPPT does not longer come to have a soaked appearance within 8-12 hours after application.
