Description
The Mepilex XT foam dressing was developed for moderately exuding wounds. It can absorb larger amounts of liquid (1) more quickly than other foam dressings (2). It is adaptable and versatile - you can use it to treat wounds with normal and viscous exudate during all phases of wound healing. Mepilex XT contains our Safetac wound contact layer. Safetac protects new tissue and intact skin, the wound remains undisturbed and the natural healing process is supported (3), (4), (5). The wound edges are also sealed to protect the skin from damaging leaks and maceration (6).
Size: 15 x 15 cm
Advantages:
- Can absorb more fluid than other foam dressings (1)
- Absorbs liquid faster than other foam dressings (2)
- For low and high viscosity exudate (1) - You can therefore use the dressing in any phase of wound healing (7)
- Excellent adaptation to the contours of the body ( 7)- high wearing comfort
- Improved exudate management - lower risk of leakage and maceration (5)
- Can be worn longer, resulting in fewer dressing changes and therefore better compliance and lower care costs (7),(8)
- No slipping, easy to use “without a third hand” (6)
- Can be worn for several days, depending on the condition of the wound (2),(9)
- Lifting and repositioning possible without loss of adhesive properties
- Medium exudate
- Can be cut to size
- Fixation required
- Very low allergy potential

Mepilex XT is a soft and extremely adaptable foam dressing that maintains a moist wound environment.
Thanks to the wound-side channels, all types of exudate are effectively absorbed. Safetac seals the edges of the wound, prevents exudate from leaking onto the skin surrounding the wound and thus minimizes the risk of maceration. Safetac also allows dressing changes without damaging the wound or surrounding skin or exposing the patient to additional pain.
1. Clean the wound according to usual procedures. Dry the skin surrounding the wound thoroughly. Remove the protective film.
2. For an optimal result, Mepilex XT should cover at least 1-2 cm of the wound surrounding skin for the smaller sizes (up to 10 x 10 cm) and 5 cm for the larger sizes to protect the skin from maceration and skin To protect stripping and to fix the bandage securely. If necessary, Mepilex XT can be cut to size. Do not stretch the bandage.
3. Fix Mepilex XT with Tubifast or otherwise.
