Mepitel Soft Silicone Wound Contact 290510 5cm x 7.5cm Single

Description:

Mepitel is a gentle wound contact layer with Safetac on two sides – the less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. It's designed to mould softly to skin without sticking to the moist wound – so you can remove it easily without damaging the skin. That means less pain for your patient.

Safetac also protects new tissue and intact skin – so wounds remain undisturbed, to support faster natural healing. And it seals the wound margins to protect skin from damaging leaks and maceration.

The perforated design lets exudate pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing. And you can leave it place, delivering topical treatments with ease. The dressing integrity reduces the need for frequent primary dressing changes and allows secondary dressing changes without disturbing healing.

  • True undisturbed healing – it can remain in place for up to 14 days.
  • Mepitel is clinically proven to heal scalds faster and with less pain and cost, compared to silver sulfadiazine.
  • Doesn’t leave residues and maintains functional qualities over time.
  • Good transparency, so you can assess healing progress without removing the contact layer.

Mepitel protects the wound and the skin. It’s designed and clinically proven for use in treating a wide range of wounds such as skin tears, skin abrasions, sutured wounds, partial thickness burns, lacerations, partial and full thickness grafts, diabetic ulcers, venous and arterial ulcers. Mepitel can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds, blisters, fragile skin, and exposed fragile tissues.

The open structure of Mepitel allows, where clinically indicated, topical ointments to pass through onto the wound.

Mepitel Soft Silicone Wound Contact Layer can be used on:

  • Skin tears
  • Surgical incisions
  • Partial thickness burns
  • Fixation of partial and full thickness grafts
  • Diabetic foot ulcers, venous and arterial leg ulcers

Usage Directions:

Follow instructions on pack or as directed by your healthcare professional.

1. Cleanse the wound in accordance with normal procedures and dry the surrounding skin thoroughly.

2. Choose a size of Mepitel that covers the wound and the surrounding skin by at least 2 cm. If required, Mepitel can be cut.

3. While holding the larger protective film, remove the smaller one. Moisten gloves to avoid adherence to Mepitel.

4. Apply Mepitel over the wound and remove the remaining protective film. Smooth Mepitel in place onto the surrounding skin, ensuring a good seal. If more than one piece of Mepitel is required, overlap the dressings, making sure that the pores are not blocked.

5. Apply a secondary absorbent dressing pad on top of Mepitel. In contoured or jointed areas (e.g., under arm, under breast, inner elbow, groin, deep wounds), ensure sufficient padding is applied to keep the Mepitel held flat against the surface of the wound.

6. Fix in place with a suitable fixation device.

Storage:

Store below 30°C, in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.

Warnings:

Always read the label & use only as directed. External use only.

If you see signs of infection e.g., fever or the wound or surrounding skin becoming red, warm or swollen, consult a health care professional for appropriate treatment.

When used on partial thickness burns with high risk of rapid granulation or after facial resurfacing: avoid placing pressure upon the dressing, lift and reposition the dressing at least every second day.

When used on bleeding wounds or wounds with high viscosity exudate, Mepitel should be covered with a moist absorbent dressing pad.

When Mepitel is used for the fixation of skin grafts and protection of blisters, the dressing should not be changed before the fifth day post application.

Do not use Mepitel on patient and/or user with known hypersensitivity to the ingoing materials/components of the product.

Do not reuse. If reused performance of the product may deteriorate, cross contamination may occur.

Sterile. Do not use if inner package is damaged or opened prior to use. Do not re-sterilise.
