Mepilex AG 6x6 Inch Foam Dressing (Molnlycke 287300) are designed for wounds with medium exudate. The foam dressing absorbs fluid, keeping it away from the wound. Once the fluid enters the dressing, it activates the silver that has been infused into the dressing. The silver is then able to break down the bacteria and prevent growth, keeping the wound clean and reducing the risk of infection. Due to its antimicrobial property, the dressing can stay in place up to seven days, depending on the exudate from the wound. The Mepilex 287300 is six inches long and six inches long, covering many wound sizes, and can be cut to fit as needed for smaller wounds. For larger wounds, there are larger sizes available as well.
The 6 x 6 Inch Mepilex AG with Safetac Technology has a silicone border that serves many purposes. It helps to keep the dressing in place when applying a secondary dressing, reduces pain during dressing changes, and reduces the risk of leaks and maceration. The foam provides comfort to the user and padding against accidental bumps to the wound. The combination of Safetac technology and foam padding makes it perfect for use with compression bandages. The dressing reduces the odor from the wound by keeping bacteria count low, making the wound more discreet, especially when properly covered.
