Mepilex 20cm x 50cm Dressing [Pack of 2]

342-9537 Mepilex 20cm x 50cm (pack of 2)

Mepilex is a soft and highly conformable foam dressing that absorbs exudate and maintains a moist wound environment. The Safetac layer seals the wound edges, preventing the exudate to leak onto the surrounding skin, thus minimising the risk for maceration. The Safetac layer ensures that the dressing can be changed without damaging the wound or surrounding skin or exposing the patient to additional pain.

Features:

• Minimises pain and trauma at dressing change
• Stays in place allowing application of compression or retention bandages
• Can be used under compression bandaging
• Can be cut to size for difficult-to dress areas
• Promotes patient comfort during wear
• Can remain in place for several days depending on the condition of the wound
• Can be reapplied
• Low potential for skin irritation and allergy
• Mepilex is designed for a wide range of  low to moderately exuding wounds such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers and traumatic wounds, e.g. skin tears and secondary healing wounds
