MEPILEX POLYURETHANE FOAM ABSORBENT DRESSING 5X5 CM 5 PIECES
Mepilex
Description
Foam dressing with soft silicone contact layer.
Mepilex is a highly conformable dressing that absorbs exudate, maintains a moist wound environment and minimises the risk of maceration. The dressing has a contact layer based on the unique Safetac technology, which minimises patient pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin when the dressing is removed.
Mepilex is indicated for a wide range of exuding wounds such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers and traumatic wounds such as skin tears and secondary surgical wounds. Mepilex can be used to protect damaged and/or delicate skin and can also be used as part of a skin breakdown prevention protocol, for example in the case of pressure ulcers.
How to use
Mepilex can be used by lay people under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
1. Clean the wound according to normal clinical protocols.
2. Carefully dry the perilesional skin.
3. Select the appropriate dressing size. Mepilex should cover the periwound skin by at least 1-2 cm for small sizes (up to 12.5 x 12.5 cm).
and for at least 3-5 cm for larger sizes, in order to protect the periwound skin from maceration and to secure the dressing securely.
If necessary, Mepilex can be cut to size to fit different shapes and anatomical areas.
4. Remove the first protective film and apply the adherent side to the wound.
5. Remove the remaining film and spread the dressing over the skin.
Do not stretch the dressing.
6. When necessary, secure Mepilex with a bandage or other type of fixation.
The dressing may be changed after several days. Change the dressing before it is completely saturated, if there is leakage, or as directed by the clinical protocol.
Mepilex can be used under compression bandages and in combination with gels.
Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental protection procedures.
Components
Mepilex consists of:
- a soft silicone contact layer (Safetac);
- a flexible, absorbent pad made of polyurethane foam;
- a breathable but waterproof external polyurethane film.
Warnings
• Do not use on patients with known hypersensitivity to the medication or its components.
• Do not use in combination with oxidative agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide.
• If there are signs of clinical infection, such as fever, or if the lesion or surrounding skin becomes red, warm or swollen, consult a doctor for appropriate treatment.
• Do not reuse. Reusing the product may compromise its effectiveness and cause cross-contamination.
• Sterile. Do not use if sterile barrier system is damaged or package is opened prior to use. Do not resterilize.
