ANTIMICROBIAL POLYURETHANE FOAM WITH SILVER WITH SOFT SILICONE CONTACT LAYER MEPILEX AG 10X10CM 5 PIECES MEPILEX
Mepilex AG
Absorbent antimicrobial polyurethane foam dressing with a soft silicone contact layer with selective micro-adherence.
External polyurethane film permeable to water vapor and impermeable to liquids and bacteria.
Absorbent and flexible pad made of open-cell polyurethane foam with vertical absorption, grey in colour, containing silver sulphate and activated carbon.
Safetac Soft Silicone Wound Contact Layer. The Safetac soft silicone technology applied to Molnlycke dressings minimizes patient pain and wound trauma even in critical situations, or when exudate begins to dry:
- adapts to the irregular surface of the skin to create a larger contact area, which allows for better distribution of the force required for removal, preventing skin stripping;
- leaves no residue either on the lesion bed or on healthy skin;
- seals the edges of the wound, preventing exudate from spreading to the perilesional skin, minimising the risk of maceration;
- does not adhere to moist surfaces, such as open wounds but to the dry edges of the wound.
The antimicrobial action of Mepilex Ag is ensured by the presence of a silver-based salt, silver sulphate, inside the foam, which, when in contact with fluids, releases silver ions which are essential for the specific antimicrobial action of the dressing.
Mepilex Ag is indicated for the management of low to moderately exuding wounds such as:
- ulcers of the other lower legs;
- pressure ulcers;
- partial thickness burns;
- can be used on infected wounds as part of a treatment regimen under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.
Warnings
- It must be used under the supervision of healthcare personnel.
- Do not use in case of known hypersensitivity of the patient to silver.
- Do not use together with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide solutions.
- Qualified physicians/healthcare professionals should be aware that there are very limited data on the prolonged and repeated use of silver-containing dressings, particularly in children and neonates.
- Do not use during radiotherapy or diagnostic tests, such as X-rays, ultrasound, diathermy or magnetic resonance imaging.
- Avoid contact with conductive electrodes or gels during electronic measurements, e.g. electrocardiograms (ECG) and electroencephalograms (EEG).
- For external use only.
- May cause temporary discoloration of the wound bed and periwound skin.
- It does not replace the appropriate systemic therapies required in the presence of clinical infections - In case of clinical infection, the application does not exclude the need for systemic therapy or other appropriate treatment of the infection.
- No interactions with other topical treatments have been demonstrated.
- No interactions with cleaning solutions other than saline or water have been demonstrated.
- Do not reuse. Reusing the product may deteriorate its effectiveness and cause cross-contamination.
