Mepilex Border Flex Lite is a thin absorbent foam dressing designed for the management of a wide range of non- to moderately exuding wounds, such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds e.g., abrasions, blisters, and skin tears. Mepilex Border Flex Lite can also be used as protection of compromised and/or fragile skin. This is a wound dressing with Safetac silicone adhesive. The Safetac technology has been clinically demonstrated to minimise damage to the wound and skin during removal, assisting in minimised pain during dressing change.

Designed to stay on and uniquely conform with its innovative 360° Flex Technology that allows the dressing to confirm in every direction, reducing skin stress, increasing comfort, and keeping the dressing in-situ. The conformability is up to 4X better than Mepilex Border Lite. The smart exudate management for the Mepilex Border Flex Lite dressing means the unique 4-layer dressing absorbs and channels exudate away from the wound bed, allowing you to track exudate progress without disturbing the wound.

Mepilex Border Flex Lite provides an optimal balance of exudate absorption and moisture vapour loss, maximising exudate management for or non to moderately exuding wounds.

Benefits:

Minimises pain and trauma at dressing changes.
Stays in place allowing for ‘hands-free’ to facilitate application of compression or retention bandages.
Promotes patient comfort; thin and very comfortable to wear.
Can be left in place during radiotherapy using commonly applied energy ranges and absorbed doses.
May be used for preventing skin damage under medical devices.
Well suited to be used under compression bandages. Can be cut to suit various wound shapes and difficult-to-dress locations.
Can remain in place for several days depending on the condition of the wound, or as indicated by accepted clinical practice.
Can be lifted and adjusted without losing its adherent properties. Low potential for skin irritation and allergy.
Mepilex Lite can be used for: Non- to low exuding wounds Diabetic foot ulcers Leg ulcers Radiation skin reactions Epidermolysis Bullosa

Directions:

Follow instructions on pack or as directed by your healthcare professional.

Cleanse the wound in accordance with clinical practice.
Dry the surrounding skin thoroughly.
Select an appropriate dressing size. The dressing should cover the dry surrounding skin by at least 1-2 cm for small sizes (sizes up to 12.5x12.5 cm) and 3-5 cm for large sizes. If required, the dressing may be cut to suit various wound shapes and locations.
Remove the first release film and apply the adherent side to the wound.
Remove the remaining release film and smooth down the dressing on the skin. Do not stretch the dressing.
When necessary, fixate the dressing with a bandage or other fixation.

Storage Instructions:

Store below 30°C, in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.

Product Warnings:

Seek medical advice immediately for all serious wounds or injuries, or if redness or discomfort occurs.

This product is not a substitute for direct medical attention from a healthcare practitioner.

Always read the label & use only as directed. External use only.

In case of signs of clinical infection, consult a health care professional for appropriate treatment.

Do not use on patient with known hypersensitivity to the dressing or its ingoing materials.

Do not use together with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide.

If you see signs of clinical infection e.g., fever or the wound or surrounding skin becoming red, warm or swollen, consult a health care professional for appropriate treatment.

Do not reuse. If reused performance of the product may deteriorate, cross contamination may occur.

Sterile. Do not use if sterile barrier is damaged or opened prior to use. Do not re-sterilise.

The prophylactic use of dressings in reducing the risk of medical device related pressure injuries is well reported, however their use under PPE in terms of maintenance of a seal and potential impact on viral transmission has not been tested by Mölnlycke or others to our knowledge.
