Mepitel 10x18 cm is an innovative, transparent, and highly adaptable wound contact layer from Molnlycke.

Engineered with the unique Safetac technology, it is designed to minimize pain and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin upon removal.

This non-adherent dressing allows for undisturbed wound healing for up to 14 days, creating an optimal environment for recovery.

Its permeable structure facilitates the transfer of exudate to a secondary absorbent dressing while protecting delicate new tissue.

Mepitel is suitable for a wide range of exuding wounds, making it a versatile choice for healthcare professionals and home care.

Benefits of Mepitel

  • Minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes.
  • Allows for undisturbed wound healing for up to 14 days.
  • Protects delicate new tissue, supporting faster healing.
  • Facilitates effective transfer of exudate to a secondary dressing.
  • Transparent design allows for visual inspection of the wound without removal.
  • Conforms gently to the skin, preventing skin stripping and maceration.

How to Use

  1. Cleanse the wound area thoroughly according to clinical practice.
  2. Ensure the surrounding skin is dry.
  3. Select an appropriate size of Mepitel, ensuring it overlaps the wound edges by at least 2 cm.
  4. Remove the protective film and gently apply Mepitel directly to the wound surface.
  5. Apply a suitable secondary absorbent dressing (e.g., Mepilex, Melgisorb) over Mepitel to manage exudate.
  6. Secure the secondary dressing in place.
  7. Change the secondary dressing as required by the wound's exudate level.
  8. Mepitel can remain in place for up to 14 days, depending on the wound condition and clinical judgment.
