Mepilex Border Sacrum 5 Layer Dressing 16 X 20 Cm

Mepilex^® Border Sacrum all-in-one dressing is the only five-layer foam sacral dressing proven to prevent pressure ulcers when used in conjunction with other standard prevention protocols ^{1 2 3 4 5 6}.

The design also creates an optimal healing environment for managing moderate- to high-exuding wounds of the sacral area. It effectively absorbs and retains exudate ^7 8  and maintains a moist wound environment ⁷.

The design includes Safetac^® – the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. So the dressing moulds softly to skin without sticking to the moist wound ⁹  – you can remove it easily without damaging the skin  ^9 10 . That means less pain for your patients ¹¹ .
