Mepilex XT
ASSORBENT MEDICATION IN POLIURETAN SCHEM
EXCLUSIVE CANALS
Description
Absorbent polyurethane foam medicine with soft silicone contact layer with selective microadhesion.
The action of the product determines a control of the exudates both low and high viscosity and the maintenance of the humid environment ideal for wound healing.
It absorbs exudates vertically through innovative channels that allow the collection of any type of exudate.
Thanks to the Safetac technology contact layer, it minimizes removal trauma, protects perilesional skin, thus preventing maceration.
It can be removed and repositioned without losing its selective microadhesion characteristics.
It can be left in situ for several days (up to seven); the period of time may vary according to the conditions of injury and perilesional skin or as indicated by the usual clinical procedures.
Flexible, conformable and cropable.
Soft silicone medication that absorbs exudate both low and high viscosity.
Indicated for a wide range of acute and chronic lesions in all healing phases such as:
- ulcers of lower limbs;
- pressure ulcers;
- traumatic injuries (e.g. skin tears);
- wounds that heal for second intention.
The product and packaging are Latex Free
Composition
The composition of the product is as follows:
1) External film in water vapour permeable polyurethane and waterproof to liquids and bacteria.
2) Flexible and absorbent cell polyurethane foam with vertical absorption equipped with innovative channels for collecting any type of exudate (Figure below).
3) Soft silicone layer in contact with the wound (safetac technology).
Mode of use
Clean the wound according to the usual procedures and let dry the perilesional skin.
Open the package and remove the protection card and apply the “Safetac” side of the dressing on the wound. Don't wear dressing.
For a better result Mepilex XT should cover the perilesional skin for at least 1-2 cm above the edges of the wound for small measures (measures up to 10 x 10 cm) and for at least 5 cm for larger measures, in order to protect the perilesional skin from maceration and escoriation and to be able to securely fix the dressing. If necessary, you can cut the product to fit different shapes and anatomical areas.
If necessary fix with a bandage or other fixing system.
It can be used under compressed bandages and in combination with gel.
Initially it may be necessary to change the dressing with greater frequency, because a modification of the treatment can determine an initial increase of the exudate.
It maintains the humid environment ideal for healing and favors the debridement of the wound. An initial enlargement of the size of the wound could occur. This effect is quite normal.
Warnings
For external use.
In case of sensitization of the treated area or clinical signs of infection, consult the healthcare staff.
Do not use on patients with sensitivities ascertained to the dressing or its components.
Do not use together with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide.
The polyurethane foam used in the product can change yellowing color when exposed to light, air and/or heat. Color change does not affect the properties of the product, if used within the expiry date.
Its disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental protection procedures.
Do not use after the expiry date. Product properties are not guaranteed in case of use after the expiry date.
Not reusable. Reuse of the product can compromise its effectiveness and cause crusade contamination.
