How long can the dressing stay in place?
It depends on the wound and the conditions. If the dressing is being used under compression it can stay in place for as long as the compression bandage (e.g.one week). In the initial stages it should be checked and changed frequently (e.g. daily or on alternate days, according to individual wound needs.
