Mepitel One

Mepitel® One is a transparent, perforated and non-absorbent dressing. The perforated structure of Mepitel One allows exudate to pass into an outer absorbent dressing. This can reduce frequent dressing changes closest to the wound and allows for changing the outer dressing with minimised pain and trauma. Mepitel One can also be used as a stand-alone dressing for protection of damaged skin. The dressing has a Safetac® wound contact layer which is a unique adhesive technology. It minimises pain to patients and trauma to wounds and the surrounding skin at dressing removal. Mepitel One consists of a soft silicone wound contact layer (Safetac) on one side and a transparent, flexible, thin and perforated polyurethane film. Mepitel One is a wound contact layer designed for the management of a wide range of exuding wounds such as; skin tears, skin abrasions, surgical incisions, partial thickness burns, traumatic wounds, partial and full thickness grafts, radiated skin, leg and foot ulcers. It can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds, blisters and on areas with fragile skin.
