Features
- Mepilex Lite is a thin and highly conformable foam dressing that absorbs exudate and maintains a moist wound environment
- The Safetac layer seals around the wound edges which prevents exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk for maceration
- Promotes patient comfort; thin and very comfortable to wear
- May be left in place during radiation therapy using commonly applied energy ranges and absorbed doses
- Well suited to be used under compression bandages
- May be cut to suit various wound shapes and difficult-to-dress locations
