Antimicrobial all-in-one post-op dressing with extra flexibility for patient mobility

Mepilex® Border Post-Op Ag antimicrobial post-operative dressing is conformable and easy to use. It's designed for acute surgical wounds that can benefit from an antimicrobial action. The impregnated silver sulphate particles create an antimicrobial action that helps to reduce bioburden after 30 minutes, killing 99.9% of a wide range of bacteria for up to seven days.1  2  3

This all-in-one bordered foam silver dressing design includes Safetac® – the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. So dressing changes are less painful 4  5  6  7 for your patients.

  • Support patient mobility 4-7
  • Reduce dressing related costs 4  5
  • Provides a broad and sustained antimicrobial effect 1-3
