Mepilex Border Post-Op Dressing 496100 6cm x 8cm Single

Description:

Wound dressing with Safetac silicone adhesive. 
Mepilex Border Post-Op is a self-adhesive absorbent surgical dressing that absorbs blood exudate and
minimises the risk for maceration and is designed for exuding wounds. It is intended for acute wounds, such as surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions.

Directions for Use:

1. Cleanse the wound and the surrounding skin in accordance with clinical practice.
2. Dry the surrounding skin thoroughly.
3. The Mepilex Border Post-Op wound pad should overlap the wound by at least 1-2 cm in order to protect the surrounding skin from maceration and fixate the dressing securely.
4. For dressings with three release films, remove the middle release film first.
Apply the adherent side to the wound, allowing initial fixation of the dressing.
For dressings with two release films, grip both overlapping release films,
exposing adhesive surface allowing initial fixation of the dressing.
5. Avoid wrinkles while gently removing the remaining release films, start with the longer part. Do not stretch the dressing during application.

Dressing material content: 

Silicone, polyurethane, viscose, polyester, polyolefins, polyacrylate and
superabsorbent acrylate fibers.
