Mepilex Border Post-Op Ag Antimicrobial all-in-one post-op dressing with extra flexibility for patient mobility

Mepilex® Border Post-Op Ag Antimicrobial Post-Operative Dressing is a highly conformable and easy-to-use solution designed for acute surgical wounds that require antimicrobial protection. The dressing contains silver sulphate particles, which provide an antimicrobial effect that helps reduce bioburden within 30 minutes, effectively killing 99.9% of a broad range of bacteria for up to seven days.

This all-in-one bordered foam dressing incorporates Safetac® technology, the original pain-reducing contact layer with silicone adhesion, ensuring less painful dressing changes for your patients.
