Mepilex is a soft and highly conformable foam dressing that absorbs exudate and maintains a moist wound environment. Mepilex 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. Features:
- Minimizes pain and trauma at dressing changes
- Stays in place allowing for “hands-free” to facilitate application of compression or retention bandages
- Well suited to be used under compression bandages
- Can be cut to suit various wound shapes and difficult-to-dress locations
- 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
