NORCROSS, GA – November 11, 2010 - Mölnlycke Health Care US, LLC, is pleased to announce the newest product addition: Mepilex® Border Ag antimicrobial bordered foam dressing with Safetac® technology.
Mepilex® Border Ag represents the next generation of innovative antimicrobial wound dressings offering a comprehensive, all-in-one dressing that effectively absorbs and retains exudate and maintains a moist wound environment. Mepilex® Border Ag has powerful silver performance that inactivates wound related pathogens within 30 minutes and sustains antimicrobial effect for up to 7 days.
The Safetac® layer seals the wound edges, which allows exudate to pass into the absorbent core and minimizes the risk of maceration. Mepilex® Border Ag features a multi-layered absorbent foam pad consisting of a unique compressed foam with silver and a fiber layer for maximum fluid retention. This combination absorbs, spreads and retains exudate while allowing the silver to be released. Mepilex® Border Ag is ideal for medium to high exuding wounds that require a moist environment, exudate management, gentle fixation, and antimicrobial action, including leg and foot ulcers pressure ulcers, superficial and partial thickness burns, traumatic wounds, and surgical wounds.
Mepilex® Border Ag may be left in place for up to 7 days, depending on the condition of the wound, which reduces the necessity for frequent primary dressing changes.
