Mepore Self Adhesive Dressing - 7cm x 8cm

Mepore is suitable for a wide range of wounds with low to moderate levels of exudates, such as surgical wounds, cuts, and abrasions.

Mepore is water-repellent, meaning it can withstand splashes and light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof for immersion.

The frequency of dressing changes depends on the wound condition and exudate level. Generally, it should be changed when it becomes wet, soiled, or if leakage occurs. Always follow the advice of your healthcare provider.

Mepore features a skin-friendly, water-based adhesive designed for gentle fixation. However, if you have particularly sensitive skin, it's advisable to test on a small area first or consult a healthcare professional.

The dressing is made of a porous, nonwoven fabric that allows air and water vapor to pass through, which helps to prevent maceration and maintain a healthy wound environment.

Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application. Smooth down the adhesive edges firmly onto the skin. The rounded corners also help to prevent snagging and improve adherence.

Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of lotions or oils. Shave any excessive hair around the application area. Ensure the correct size dressing is used and smoothed down firmly.

Gently remove the dressing. Clean the skin and allow it to air dry. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Ensure the dressing is not applied too tightly.

This dressing is designed for low to moderate exudate. If saturation occurs rapidly, a more absorbent dressing may be required. Consult a healthcare professional for alternative options.
