Description
Mepilex Border Flex 15cm x 15cm Dressing 10 Pack
All-in-one dressing that is designed to stay on and uniquely conform to the area containing the wound.
Our proprietary Flex Technology creates great conformability, and a dressing that is more flexible than compared bordered foam dressings . A dressing that moves with the patient and stays on even in the shower to save cost and promote wound integrity.
Smart exudate management
The five-layer dressing absorbs, channels and traps exudate and allows you to track exudate progress. Keeping exudate away from the wound bed, and preventing re-entry, even under compression for infection prevention and to allow better tracking of wound progress. It has better exudate handling capacity than compared bordered foam dressings and can handle both normal and viscous exudate .
