When used to manage wounds, Mepilex Border Sacrum effectively absorbs and retains exudate and maintains a moist wound environment for optimal healing. The Safetac® technology layer seals the wound edges, preventing exudate leakage onto the surrounding skin, minimizing the risk of maceration. The Safetac technology layer allows the dressing to be changed without damaging the wound or surrounding skin, or exposing the patient to additional pain.
