Mepilex 20x20 cm is a sterile, self-adhesive foam dressing with Safetac technology for gentle wound management. It effectively absorbs exudate, minimizes pain during changes, and promotes optimal healing for various exuding wounds. This box contains 5 dressings.

Product Overview

Mepilex 20x20 cm is a highly conformable and absorbent foam dressing designed for a wide range of exuding wounds. Its innovative Safetac technology ensures that the dressing can be removed with minimal pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin, promoting a gentle healing environment. This soft silicone foam dressing effectively manages exudate while maintaining an optimal moist wound environment, crucial for accelerating the healing process.

Benefits of Use

Mepilex offers numerous advantages for wound care:

  • Minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes, protecting new tissue growth.
  • Excellent exudate management capabilities, keeping the wound moist without maceration.
  • Soft and conformable, easily adapting to body contours for patient comfort.
  • Can be cut to fit various wound shapes and sizes.
  • Low risk of skin irritation or allergic reactions due to Safetac technology.
  • Suitable for a wide range of wounds including pressure ulcers, leg and foot ulcers, and traumatic wounds.

How to Use

  1. Cleanse the wound area gently with saline solution or a wound cleanser according to clinical practice.
  2. Ensure the skin surrounding the wound is dry.
  3. Choose a Mepilex dressing size that covers the wound and overlaps the surrounding skin by at least 1-2 cm.
  4. Remove the release film and apply the adhesive side to the wound. Do not stretch.
  5. Secure the dressing if necessary with a secondary fixation product, although Mepilex has self-adhesive properties.
  6. Change the dressing according to the wound condition and exudate level, typically every few days or as clinically indicated.

Caution & Warnings

  • Do not use on patients with a known hypersensitivity to the dressing or its components.
  • Do not re-use. Re-use may lead to cross-contamination and impaired product performance.
  • Do not sterilize. The product is supplied sterile.
  • Inspect the wound regularly for signs of infection. If infection occurs or worsens, consult a healthcare professional.
  • Ensure the dressing is not applied under tension to prevent skin damage.
