Beipackzettel ansehen

Mepilex XT is a dressing for the treatment of a wide range of exuding acute and chronic wounds at all stages of wound healing, including leg, foot or pressure ulcers and traumatic wounds such as skin tears or secondary healing wounds.

Mepilex XT is a highly flexible dressing with integrated exudate channels that absorbs low and high viscosity exudate, maintains a moist wound environment and minimises the risk of maceration. The dressing has a unique self-adhesive wound contact layer - Safetac® technology. The wound contact layer minimises pain for the patient and trauma to the wound and surrounding skin when the dressing is removed.

Mepilex XT consists of:

  • a wound contact layer made of soft silicone (Safetac)
  • a flexible, absorbent wound dressing made of polyurethane foam
  • a breathable and waterproof outer polyurethane film

Application
Mepilex XT can also be used by non-professionals under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

  1. Clean the wound according to clinical standards.
  2. Dry the skin surrounding the wound thoroughly.
  3. Select a suitable dressing size. The dressing should overlap the dry, wound-surrounding skin by at least 1-2 cm for smaller wounds (up to 12.5×12.5 cm) and 3-5 cm for larger wounds. If necessary, the dressing can be cut to the appropriate wound size.
  4. Remove the first protective film and place the adhesive side on the wound.
  5. Remove the remaining protective film and smooth the dressing onto the skin. Do not overstretch the dressing.
  6. If necessary, the dressing can be held in place with a bandage or other fixation.

The interval for changing the dressing can be several days. Change the dressing before it is completely saturated, if there are signs of leakage or according to clinical practice. Mepilex XT can also be used under compression and together with gels.
