Mepitel 10x18 cm Non-Adherent Wound Contact Layer

Mepitel 10x18 cm is a transparent, non-adherent wound contact layer featuring Molnlycke's Safetac technology. This advanced dressing ensures gentle dressing changes, minimizing pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin. It allows for undisturbed wound healing for up to 14 days, providing an optimal moist wound environment. Ideal for a wide range of wounds, Mepitel facilitates efficient exudate transfer while protecting delicate new tissue from damage during removal.

Benefits of Mepitel 10x18 cm

  • Gentle Adhesion: Safetac technology ensures secure but gentle adhesion, preventing trauma to the wound and periwound skin upon removal.
  • Minimized Pain: Significantly reduces pain during dressing changes, improving patient comfort.
  • Undisturbed Healing: Can remain in place for up to 14 days, allowing the wound healing process to proceed without interruption.
  • Transparent Design: Allows for easy wound inspection without removing the dressing.
  • Exudate Management: Permeable to exudate, allowing it to pass into a secondary absorbent dressing.
  • Versatile Use: Suitable for various wound types, including skin tears, abrasions, surgical incisions, and partial thickness burns.

How to Use Mepitel 10x18 cm

  1. Cleanse the Wound: Gently clean the wound area according to clinical practice.
  2. Prepare the Skin: Ensure the skin around the wound is dry.
  3. Apply Mepitel: Select the appropriate size of Mepitel to cover the wound and overlap onto the surrounding skin. Cut if necessary.
  4. Remove Release Film: Remove the protective release film and apply the Mepitel dressing directly to the wound surface.
  5. Apply Secondary Dressing: Cover Mepitel with a suitable secondary absorbent dressing (e.g., Mepilex) and secure with a bandage or fixation tape.
  6. Change Dressing: Mepitel can be left in place for up to 14 days, depending on the wound condition and clinical advice. The secondary dressing should be changed as needed.

Caution & Warnings

  • • Do not use if the sterile packaging is damaged or opened.
  • • Consult a healthcare professional for specific wound care advice.
  • • Mepitel is not intended for full-thickness burns or heavily exuding wounds without a highly absorbent secondary dressing.
