How Mepilex Border Post-Op works?
Mepilex Border Post-Op is an all-in-one post-op dressing that very effectively absorbs and retains surgical exudates. The Safetac interface minimise painful wound and peri-wound skin damage at dressing removal.The Safetac interface seals the wound edges, preventing the exudate to leak onto surrounding skin, this minimising the risk for maceration. The flex-cut pad gives high flexibility and a very good conformability over joints, such as hips and knees, promoting patient mobilisation.
