Mepitel One Wound Contact Layer

Mepitel One is a silicone wound contact layer designed for the management of a wide range of exuding wounds. Mepitel One has an open, perforated structure that allows exudate to pass into an outer absorbent dressing. The Safetac layer prevents the outer dressing from sticking to the wound and protects it during the healing phase.
Areas of Use
- Skin tears
- Skin abrasions
- Surgical incisions
- Traumatic wounds
- Partial and full thickness grafts
- Radiated Skin
- Leg and foot ulcers
- It can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds, blisters and on areas with fragile skin

Safetac Technology:
Safetac is the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. Designed to mould softly to skin without sticking to the moist wound – so you can remove it easily without damaging the skin. That means less pain for your patients. Safetac also protects new tissue and intact skin – so wounds remain undisturbed, to support faster natural healing. Plus it seals the wound margins to protect skin from damaging leaks and maceration. The combination of less pain and less skin damage to support faster healing can also reduce the cost of treatment.
Precautions:
- If you see signs of infection, e.g. fever, the wound or surrounding skin becoming red, warm or swollen, consult a healthcare professional for appropriate treatment.
- Always consult a healthcare professional before using Mepitel One on Epidermolysis Bullosa patients.
- Do not use Mepitel One on patients with known sensitivity to silicone or polyurethane.
