Mepilex Border Ag Dressing – Silver Impregnated Soft Silicone Foam Dressing (Multiple Sizes) (x1 or 5)

Mepilex Border Ag, an all-in-one silver foam dressing, effectively combats microbial growth in wounds while also providing a continuous antimicrobial effect to reduce bio-burden. Its versatility makes it suitable for managing a wide range of medium to high exuding chronic and acute wounds, including leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, malignant wounds, partial thickness burns, and traumatic and surgical wounds.

According to studies, Mepilex Border Ag successfully deactivates wound-relevant pathogens, including bacteria and fungi, in just 3 hours, as demonstrated in laboratory conditions. Antimicrobial action is emphasised as critical in lowering bio-burden in infected wounds and functioning as a protective barrier against infections or potential reinfections in wounds that are vulnerable to such risk.

Safetac has been incorporated into the Mepilex Border Ag design, and it is known for its soft, silicone-based adhesive that reduces user discomfort during dressing changes.
