Mepilex Border is an all-in-one foam dressing that effectively absorbs and retains 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.

 Key Features:

• Minimises pain and trauma at dressing changes
• Self-adherent - no secondary fixation needed
• Shower proof
• Can be used under compression bandages
• Promotes patient comfort during wear
• Can remain in place for several days depending on the condition of the wound
• Can be lifted and adjusted without losing its adherent properties
• Low potential for skin irritation and allergy

 Areas of use

Mepilex Border is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers and traumatic wounds, e.g. skin tears and secondary healing wounds.

Mölnlycke Mepitel Dressing 10cmx18cm Pk/10

Mepitel is a wound-contact layer that can be left in place for up to 14 days depending on the condition of the wound. The long wear time of Mepitel reduces the necessity for frequent primary dressing changes. The porous structure of Mepitel allows exudate to pass into an outer absorbent dressing.

The Safetac layer prevents the outer dressing from sticking to the wound and ensures atraumatic dressing changes. The Safetac layer seals around the wound edges and prevents exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk of maceration.

Specifications:

• UOM: Pk/10
• Length: 10 x 18cm

Exufiber is a sterile nonwoven dressing made from highly absorbent polyvinyl alcohol fibres. In contact with wound exudate, Exufiber transforms into a gel that facilitates moist wound healing and ease of removal during dressing change. Exufiber absorbs and retains wound exudate. Exufiber is available both as sheet and ribbon dressings.

Key Features:

• High tensile strength to enable dressing removal in one piece
• High retention capacity to prevent leakage and maceration
• Absorbs and retains exudate, blood and bacteria
• Highly absorbent, also under compression therapy
• Soft and conformable which makes it easy to apply
• Can be left in place for up to 7 days and up to 14 days on donor sites

Precautions:

• All wounds should be inspected frequently. In case of signs of clinical infection, consult a health care professional for adequate infection treatment.
• Exufiber is not intended for dry wounds or full thickness burns.
• If the dressing dries out and is difficult to remove, it should be moistened according to local policies (e.g. with sterile saline or sterile water) and allowed to soak until it lifts easily.
• It may take several minutes for Exufiber to transform into a gel. Remove the dressing by gently cleansing/flushing.

Intended Use:

Exufiber wound dressing is intended to be used on a wide range of exuding wounds:

• Leg and foot ulcers
• Pressure injuries
• Partial thickness burns
• Surgical wounds
• Donor sites
• Malignant wounds
• Dermal lesions and other external wounds inflicted by trauma

Mepilex® Transfer Ag is an antimicrobial wound contact layer with Safetac® technology which has been designed for undisturbed healing. By combining it with a secondary layer appropriate for a specific wound type it allows you to create an optimal dressing combination.

Mepilex Transfer Ag may remain in place whilst only the secondary dressing is changed when needed. It effectively absorbs and transfers exudates to a secondary layer, whilst minimising trauma to the wound and the surrounding skin, and pain to the patient at dressing removal.

Key Features:

• Effective exudate management that transfers exudate to a secondary dressing
• Features Safetac technology for less painful dressing changes
• Combining a rapid and a sustained antimicrobial effect
• Comfortable to wear due to the conformable foam

Frequency of change

Mepilex® Transfer Ag may be left in place for up to 14 days depending on the patient, condition of the wound and surrounding skin, or as indicated by accepted clinical practice.It is intended for short-term use up to 4 weeks. For continued use, a re-assessment by a physician is recommended.

Areas of use

Mepilex Transfer Ag is indicated for low to high exuding wounds including difficult-to-dress areas where an antimicrobial effect is needed: partial thickness burns, donor sites, foot and leg ulcers, pressure injuries and malignant wounds. If needed, Mepilex Transfer Ag can easily be cut.
