Mepilex® Border Sacrum Foam Dressing
By: Molnlycke Health Care

Molnlycke Mepilex® Border Sacrum Soft Silicone Bordered Foam Dressing effectively absorbs and retains exudates and maintains a moist wound environment. It is specifically shaped to fit the sacral area and the Safetac® layer seals the wound edges, preventing the exudates from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk for maceration. This dressing minimizes pain and trauma at dressing changes.
