Mepilex Border Sacrum 5 Layer Dressing 22x25cm

The Mepilex® Border Sacrum Advanced Foam Dressing is expertly designed for both prevention and treatment of sacral pressure injuries, especially in individuals at elevated risk. This innovative, five-layer dressing provides multi-faceted protection against the primary causes of pressure ulcers, including pressure, shear, and friction, while supporting overall skin health and patient comfort.

Key Features:

• Advanced Multi-Layer Protection: Offers robust defense and flexibility, effectively minimizing the impact of pressure, shear, and friction—the leading contributors to pressure injuries.

• Gentle Silicone Adhesive: Utilizes a soft silicone interface that gently seals the wound edge, minimizing exudate leakage and reducing the risk of skin maceration. Also designed to enable comfortable and atraumatic dressing changes, protecting the wound and surrounding skin.

• User-Friendly Design: Features integrated handling tabs and reinforced borders for easy application, adjustment, and patient assessment.

• Demonstrated Clinical Effectiveness: Clinically shown to significantly lower the occurrence of pressure injuries when integrated into a total preventative care plan.

• Promotes Optimal Wound Healing: Efficiently absorbs and locks in exudate, supporting a moist wound environment that encourages faster healing while minimizing the risk of maceration.

• Adaptable Use: Ideal for managing moderate to heavily exuding sacral wounds, including pressure ulcers and post-surgical sites.

• Dual Purpose: Suitable for both prevention and treatment of pressure injuries in a variety of clinical settings, especially for immobile or high-risk patients.

For best results, use Mepilex® Border Sacrum as part of a complete pressure injury prevention or wound care strategy. Well-suited for use in hospital wards, critical care, emergency departments, and for patients undergoing prolonged surgical procedures.
