Molnlycke Mepitel Ag Antimicrobial Wound Contact Layer with Safetac Technology features a porous structure that allows exudate to pass into an outer absorbent dressing. Its safetac layer prevents the outer dressing from sticking to the wound. It ensures atraumatic dressing changes by sealing around the wound edges, preventing the exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk of maceration.

Mepilex Ag is intended for the management of a wide range of exuding wounds such as:
1. Cleanse the wound following normal procedures anddry the surrounding skin thoroughly. Choose a size of Mepitel Ag that covers the wound and the surrounding skin by at least 2 cm, and cut it to fit if needed.
2. While holding the larger protective film, remove the smaller one. Moisten gloves to avoid adherence to Mepitel Ag.
3. Apply Mepitel Ag over the wound.
4. Remove the remaining protective film. Smooth out Mepitel Ag. If more than a piece of Mepitel Ag is needed, the dressings need to be overlapped in such a manner that the open structures are not blocked.
5. Apply an appropriate secondary layer over Mepitel Ag such as Mextra Superabsorbent or Mesorb. In contoured areas, ensure there is sufficient padding to keep Mepitel Ag flat against the wound.
6. Keep the dressings in place by using suitable fixation such as Tubifast.
Mepilex Ag may be left in place for up to 8 days depending on the patient, condition of the wound and surrounding skin or as indicated by accepted clinical practice. Duration of treatment is determined by the physician and depends on the wound type and healing conditions.
