Molnlycke 282055 Mepilex Border Sacrum 6-2/7 in. x 8 in. CS/50

Key features of the Molnlycke 282055 Mepilex Border Sacrum:

• Highly absorbent: The dressing is made from a special type of absorbent foam that can hold a large amount of exudate. This helps to prevent maceration and promote wound healing.
• Soft and conformable: The dressing is soft and conformable, making it comfortable to wear and easy to apply. This is especially important for wounds in sensitive areas, such as the sacrum.
• Silicone adhesive border: The dressing has a soft, silicone adhesive border that helps to secure the dressing in place and prevent leakage. The silicone adhesive is gentle on the skin and does not cause pain or irritation.
• Sacral-shaped: The dressing is specifically shaped to fit the sacral area. This helps to ensure that the dressing stays in place and provides optimal coverage of the wound.
• Breathable: The dressing is breathable, which helps to prevent the build-up of heat and moisture under the dressing. This can help to reduce the risk of infection.
• Showerproof: The dressing is showerproof, so patients can continue to shower or bathe while wearing the dressing.
