Molnlycke's Mepilex Border Flex All-in-One Dressing merges revolutionary Flex technology with tried-and-tested Safetac technology, offering an effective, long-lasting, and discreet wound care solution. With a water-resistant outer layer, this dressing can remain on the wound for up to 7 days, even while the patient showers. The backing film is also breathable and marked with spots, making it easy to track exudate color and consistency without removing the dressing.
Intelligent Exudate Management
Border Flex is an innovative 5-layer dressing designed to absorb, channel, and trap exudate, providing healthcare professionals with the ability to monitor exudate levels without having to remove the dressing. This process stops exudate from entering the wound bed again and it also remains effective even with compression applied. With an increased capacity for exudate handling compared to other dressings, this dressing can handle both normal and more viscous types of exudate.
Adaptable Flex Technology
The Mepilex Flex Bordered Dressing, which uses Flex technology for a highly-conforming fit, can remain in place for up to seven days depending on the status of the wound and its surrounding skin, or as specified by modern medical practices. This dressing is additionally water-resistant, so patients can shower while it is in use.
Trauma and Pain Reduction
The patented Safetac technology provides an innovative solution to the age-old problem of wound management, effectively sealing the edges to stop any exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, reducing the chances of maceration. Furthermore, the patented technology helps to minimize pain and trauma during dressing changes as the risk of damage to the wound, surrounding skin, and to the patient, is significantly lowered. The innovative technology makes it possible for the dressing to remain in place for up to 7 days.
