Wound Contact Layer Dressing Mepitel®
Wound Contact Layer Dressing Mepitel
Mepitel is a soft silicone wound contact layer designed to protect fragile tissue and minimize pain and trauma during dressing changes. Featuring Safetac technology, it provides gentle contact with the wound and surrounding skin while allowing exudate to pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing.
Key Features
- Safetac Technology: Soft silicone contact layer is designed to minimize pain and trauma during dressing changes.
- Non-Adherent Wound Contact: Helps prevent the dressing from sticking to moist wound tissue for gentler removal.
- Skin Protection: Helps protect fragile skin and wound margins while reducing the risk of damage during dressing changes.
- Extended Wear Time: May remain in place for multiple days when clinically appropriate, reducing the need for frequent disturbance of the wound bed.
- Transparent Design: Allows visual inspection of the wound without removing the contact layer.
- Two-Sided Design: Can be applied in either direction for easier placement and wound coverage.
- Exudate Transfer: Open mesh structure allows wound fluid to pass through into a secondary absorbent dressing.
