What is Mepilex Border Lite?

Mepilex Border Lite is a self-adherent soft silicone foam dressing. It consists of:

• a soft silicone wound-contact layer (Safetac®)
• a thin flexible absorbent pad of polyurethane foam and
• an outer film which is vapor permeable, moisture proof and bacteria proof.

When is Mepilex Border Lite indicated?

Mepilex Border Lite is designed for the management of a wide range of non/low exuding wounds, such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, surgical incisions, and traumatic wounds, such as abrasions, finger injuries, blisters and skin tears. Mepilex Border Lite can also be used as protection of compromised and/or fragile skin.

How does Mepilex Border Lite work?

Mepilex Border Lite is a highly conformable self-adherent dressing that absorbs exudate, maintains a moist wound environment and minimizes the risk for maceration. The Safetac layer seals around the wound edges, preventing the exudate from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk for maceration. The Safetac layer ensures atraumatic removal at dressing changes.
