Mepilex Border Post-Op is an all-in-one post-op dressing that very effectively absorbs and retains surgical exudate. The Safetac interface minimises painful wound and peri-wound skin damage on dressing removal. The Safetac interface seals the wound edges, preventing the exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, minimising the risk of maceration. The Flex-cut pad gives high flexibility and very good conformability over joints, such as knees or hips, promoting patient mobilisation.

Areas of Use:

Mepilex Border Post-Op is designed for exuding wounds. It is intended for acute wounds, such as surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions. It is optimised for post-op use and blood absorption. The design gives very high flexibility and makes it ideal to be used over joints, such as hips and knees.

Frequency of change:

Mepilex Border Post-Op may be left in place for several days depending on the condition of the wound and the surrounding skin, or as indicated by accepted clinical practice.
