Mölnlycke Mepilex Border Flex Multipurpose All-In-One Foam Dressing With Safetac

What is Mepilex Border Flex for?

All-in-one dressing with proprietary Flex technology for improved conformability and stability during use.

Mepilex Border Flex with proprietary Flex technology is an “all-in-one” dressing that guarantees better conformability and stability during use. Handles bacterial exudate, retaining it better than other foam dressings. It is designed to treat a wide range of acute and chronic exuding wounds, such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, skin lacerations and traumatic wounds.

The proprietary Flex technology allows for 360-degree extensibility, thanks to the Y-cuts present in its retention and dispersion layers. It adapts to body shapes, even in difficult-to-dress positions, and stays stable longer than other dressings.

Thanks to its fibers that absorb 40% compared to Mepilex Border, the retention layer manages both normal and viscous exudate, retaining fluids and ensuring prolonged effectiveness of the dressing. In fluid absorbency tests, Mepilex Border Flex was found to be 125% higher than other all-in-one dressing brands.

The extremely breathable protection film features an exudate monitoring system and a grid of equidistant points that serve to monitor and record the progress of fluids, without disturbing the wound. This information on fluid progress can be recorded and shared between different shifts or nursing visits, avoiding excessive dressing changes.

How Mepilex Border Flex works

Overall, the five-layer structure is able to absorb, channel and retain bacterial exudate, preventing it from contaminating the wound bed and preventing new access, even under compression.

• Proprietary Flex technology for improved conformability and stability during use
• Improved exudate management with bacterial trapping properties
• Safetac wound contact layer to reduce pain when dressing changes
• Easy three-part application for more accurate placement and less waste
• Monitor and record the progression of exudate for improved dressing usage efficiency
• Stays more stable than other foam dressings - up to 7 days

Safetac is the original adhesive silicone contact layer that minimizes pain. We designed it to gently adapt to the skin without sticking to the moist wound so it can be removed easily without damaging the skin. This means less pain for your patients. Safetac also protects the new tissue and intact skin, without disturbing the wound and accelerating its natural healing. It also seals the edges of the wound to protect the skin from leaking exudate and maceration. Combined less pain and less skin damage promote faster healing, which also reduces the cost of treatment.

Since their launch, Safetac technology dressings have won the trust of doctors to treat millions of patients around the world. We are committed to earning this trust by supporting our products with evidence of quality. Did you know that over 450 peer-reviewed studies confirm Safetac's superior performance?
