Mepilex Border Ag – Gentle antimicrobial foam dressing
The Mepilex Border Ag is an all‑in‑one antimicrobial foam dressing featuring silver, designed for carers, nurses, aged care providers, NDIS participants and everyday consumers. It absorbs moderate to heavy exudate, helps maintain a moist healing environment, and reduces microbial load and odour in wounds.
Why Choose Mepilex Border Ag?
This bordered foam dressing uses Safetac® soft silicone technology to seal wound edges, minimising leakage and maceration, while ensuring atraumatic, low‑pain dressing changes. The sustained silver release begins working within 30 minutes and continues for up to 7 days. Its waterproof backing allows patients to shower without needing additional covers.
Key Features & Benefits
- Rapid antimicrobial action: Inactivates wound‑related pathogens, including MRSA, within 30 minutes and sustained for up to 7 days.
- Safetac® technology: Soft silicone contact layer seals edges, reduces pain and prevents trauma on removal.
- Highly absorbent foam: Manages moderate to high exudate and maintains a moist healing environment.
- Leak-proof backing: Waterproof and bacteria/virus resistant, making it suitable for showering.
- Self-adherent: No need for extra fixation; stays securely in place even under compression.
-
Low irritation risk: Gentle on fragile skin and unlikely to cause allergic reactions.
Available Variants
- 7.5 × 7.5 cm: Compact option for smaller wounds.
- 10 × 10 cm: Standard size for common wound areas.
- 15 × 15 cm: Larger coverage for moderate wounds.
- 15 × 20 cm: Extended size for more extensive wound areas.
- 10 × 20 cm: Rectangular option for long or narrow wounds.
-
10 × 25 cm: Ideal for elongated wounds.
Indications for Use
- Leg and foot ulcers
- Pressure injuries (ulcers)
- Partial thickness burns
- Surgical and traumatic wounds
- Infected or sloughy wounds
- Fragile or sensitive skin
How to Apply
- Prepare: Cleanse the wound with saline or water and pat the surrounding skin dry.
- Select size: Choose a dressing that overlaps the wound edges by at least 1–2 cm.
- Apply: Remove release films, centre foam over the wound, and smooth the border without stretching.
- Secure: Ensure full contact and no wrinkles; the self-adherent border secures without extra tape.
- Monitor: Leave in place up to 7 days or until saturated; replace sooner if leakage occurs or infection is suspected.
-
Reassess: After 4 weeks of use, review with a healthcare professional for ongoing therapy.
