Mepilex Border Flex Oval 13x16cm Foam Dressing - Advanced Wound Care Solution

Benefits of Use:

• Superior Conformability: The unique Flex Technology allows the dressing to conform effortlessly to challenging body contours and joints, ensuring comfortable wear and a reduced risk of detachment.


• Gentle Adhesion with Safetac Technology: Minimizes pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin during dressing changes, making the experience significantly more comfortable for the patient.


• Optimal Exudate Management: Effectively absorbs and retains wound exudate, maintaining a moist wound healing environment while preventing maceration of the periwound skin.


• Shower-Proof and Bacteria-Proof: Provides a reliable barrier against water and external contaminants, allowing patients to shower and reducing the risk of infection.


• Extended Wear Time: Designed for longer wear, which can reduce the frequency of dressing changes and associated costs.

How to Use:

1. Cleanse the wound area thoroughly with saline or a recommended wound cleanser, ensuring it is free from debris.


2. Gently dry the skin around the wound (periwound skin) to ensure proper adhesion.


3. Select an appropriate dressing size, ensuring the absorbent foam pad covers the entire wound and overlaps the periwound skin by at least 2 cm to secure adhesion.


4. Carefully remove the release films from the adhesive side of the dressing.


5. Apply the adhesive side to the skin without stretching the dressing.


6. Smooth down the edges firmly to ensure good adhesion and prevent leakage.


7. Check the dressing regularly according to clinical practice guidelines and change when saturated or as advised by a healthcare professional.

Caution & Warnings:

• Do not use on individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to the dressing components.


• If signs of infection occur (e.g., fever, increased redness, swelling, pain, increased exudate, foul odor), consult a healthcare professional immediately.


• This product is designed for single use only. Do not reuse, as it may compromise sterility and effectiveness.


• Avoid stretching the dressing during application, as this may cause skin tension, blistering, or reduce adhesion.


• Ensure proper sterile technique is followed during application to prevent wound contamination.
