Product features: Mepilex Border Sacrum Five-layer foam dressing for pressure ulcer prevention and treatment of wounds in the sacral area The Mepilex Border Sacrum Complete Dressing is the only five-layer foam dressing for the sacral area featuring the companys proprietary Deep Defense Technology. When used with other standard prevention protocols, it has been proven to prevent pressure ulcers. The dressing can also be used to treat moderately to heavily exuding wounds in the sacral area. It absorbs and retains exudate and ensures adequate fluid balance, thus preventing maceration. This improved design includes new tabs and thicker edges for faster application and patient assessment. The sacral shape has been specifically enhanced for pressure ulcer prevention, providing excellent coverage of the highly vulnerable sacral area. The improved seal around the gluteal cleft ensures maximum protection. The optimized design also features Safetac—the original silicone-adhesive contact layer that minimizes pain during dressing changes. Therefore, the dressing is comfortable and conforms to the patients anatomy. It can be easily removed without damaging the skin. This makes changing the dressing less painful for your patients. Proven to contribute to pressure ulcer prevention -- by up to 88% -- when used in combination with other standard prevention protocols. The companys proprietary Deep Defense Technology provides protection against external forces -- pressure, shear forces and friction -- and ensures an optimal microclimate, the most important factors associated with the development of pressure ulcers. Mepilex Border with Safetac technology minimizes pain during dressing changes. Good fluid absorption and retention. Lower risk of maceration. Application areas of Mepilex Border Sacrum: 1. Treatment: Use Mepilex Border Sacrum for moderately to heavily exuding wounds in the sacral region, such as pressure ulcers or surgical removal of pilonidal cysts. The dressing maintains a moist wound environment, which can support debridement. Therefore, the wound may initially enlarge. This is normal and should be expected. 2. Pressure ulcer prevention: A recent randomized controlled trial in the USA showed that Mepilex Border Sacrum significantly reduces the incidence of hospital-acquired pressure ulcers by 88%. This dressing can be used prophylactically on high-risk patients, such as bedridden patients, patients with poor skin circulation and compromised skin condition, in emergency rooms, intensive care units, or before and during lengthy surgical procedures. Scientific studies have demonstrated that Mepilex Border Sacrum can protect against the four external risk factors that can contribute to pressure ulcers: it reduces and redistributes shear forces, redistributes pressure, reduces friction, and maintains an optimal microclimate. Note: The prophylactic use of wound dressings does not preclude the further development and adherence to a comprehensive pressure ulcer prevention protocol. Source: www.urgo.de As of November 2021
