Mölnlycke Mepilex Border Lite 4cmx5cm Pk/10

From July you will start to see the existing Mepilex Border Lite product being replaced by the upgraded Mepilex Border Flex Lite version.

Mepilex Border Flex Lite has been designed to work for longer and to adapt to body shapes and movement.

Stays on. Uniquely conforms.

• Innovative 360° Flex Technology allows Mepilex®Border Flex Lite to move in every direction, reducing skin stress, increasing comfort and keeping it in place
• Up to 77% better conformability than Mepilex Border Lite
• Exudate Progress Monitor lets you objectively track and record exudate, potentially avoiding unnecessary dressing changes

Designed to stay on and uniquely conform

Our proprietary 360° Flex Technology creates greater conformability, and a dressing that is more flexible than comparable bordered

foam dressings2,17. The innovative 360° Flex Technology allows Mepilex® Border Flex Lite to move in every direction, reducing the skin stress, increasing comfort and keeping it in place1,2.

Smart exudate management

The unique 4-layer dressing absorbs and channels exudate away from the wound bed and allows you to track exudate progress without disturbing the wound3,16. The unique construction of Mepilex Border Flex Lite provides an optimal balance of exudate absorption and moisture vapour loss, maximising exudate management for or non- to moderately exuding wounds16, 18-21.

Safetac® technology. Less damage. Less pain.

In numerous randomised control trials, dressings with Safetac are clinically demonstrated to minimise damage to the wound and skin at removal6-11,13,22. By sealing the wound margins, they help prevent maceration6,11. With less damage to the wound and skin, pain at dressing change is minimised6-12. Therefore, several randomised control trails associate dressings with Safetac with faster healing7-9,12 and lower total cost of treatment7,11,12.

Areas of use

Mepilex Border Flex Lite is designed for the management of a wide range of non- to moderately exuding wounds, such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure injuries, surgical wounds and traumatic wounds, e.g. abrasions, blisters and skin tears. Mepilex Border Flex Lite can also be used as a protection of compromised and/or fragile skin.

Note: If you see clinical signs of infection, e.g. fever or if the wound or the surrounding skin becomes red, warm or swollen, consult a healthcare professional for appropriate treatment.
