Mepilex Border Ag Antimicrobial Bordered Foam Dressing is an antimicrobial, all-in-one, foam dressing that effectively absorbs and retains exudates, maintaining a moist wound environment. The Safetac layer seals the wound edges preventing the exudates from leaking onto the surrounding skin thus minimizing the risk of maceration. The Safetac layer ensures that the dressing can be changed without damaging the wound or surrounding skin, or exposing the patient to additional pain.
