Its five-layer construction (Safetac contact layer, absorbent foam, exudate-spreading layer, super-absorbent retention layer, and bacteria-impermeable backing film) supports vertical wicking, reduced lateral spread, and atraumatic dressing change. The dressing supports up to 7 days of wear, is shower-proof, and is manufactured under ISO 13485 with CE Mark under EU MDR 2017\/745.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMepilex® Border 10 × 10 cm is a comprehensive bordered foam dressing system from Mölnlycke Health Care AB (Gothenburg, Sweden), designed for clinicians and home-care users who require a single dressing that combines absorption, exudate retention, peri-wound protection, and atraumatic removal. The proprietary Safetac® silicone wound contact layer adheres to dry surrounding skin without bonding to the moist wound bed, supporting the EWMA position on minimising trauma and pain at dressing change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe five-layer construction is engineered to manage exudate vertically into the dressing core, where the retention layer locks fluid away from the wound bed and peri-wound skin. This mechanism reduces the risk of maceration and supports the moist wound healing principles described by Winter and reinforced by the International Wound Infection Institute (IWII) and the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP). The breathable, bacteria- and waterproof backing film permits showering and supports up to 7 days of undisturbed wear when clinically indicated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMölnlycke Health Care AB, Gothenburg, Sweden\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMepilex® Border — self-adherent soft silicone foam dressing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 × 10 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFive-layer: Safetac® silicone contact layer, polyurethane absorbent foam, exudate spreading layer, super-absorbent retention layer, vapour-permeable PU backing film\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWear time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 7 days, depending on wound condition and exudate level\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShowering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShower-proof; backing film resists liquid water and bacteria\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSterility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSterile (single use)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLatex content\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLatex-free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdhesive technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSafetac® soft silicone — atraumatic to wound and peri-wound skin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegulatory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCE Mark under EU MDR 2017\/745, ISO 13485 manufacturing, ISO 10993 biocompatibility, EN 13726 (test methods for primary wound dressings)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSingapore registration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDistributed under HSA-registered medical device channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBox of 5 individually pouched sterile dressings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClinical Indications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStage I to Stage IV pressure injuries, in line with NPIAP\/EPUAP\/PPPIA International Pressure Injury Guideline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLower extremity venous and arterial leg ulcers as part of compression and revascularisation pathways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiabetic foot ulcers (Wagner Grade 1–2; IWGDF-aligned care) following debridement and offloading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePostoperative incision wounds and surgical wounds healing by primary or secondary intention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkin tears (ISTAP categories 1–3) and traumatic abrasions in elderly or fragile-skin patients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDonor sites for split-thickness skin grafts and partial-thickness burns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does Safetac® technology mean clinically?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSafetac® is a soft silicone adhesive that conforms to the topography of the wound and surrounding skin without bonding to moist tissue. Published evidence (White 2008; Meaume et al.) demonstrates significantly lower peel forces, reduced pain at dressing change, and reduced peri-wound skin trauma compared with acrylic adhesives — particularly relevant for elderly, oncology, and chronic-steroid-treated patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does Mepilex Border manage exudate compared with a non-bordered foam?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bordered configuration eliminates the need for secondary fixation in most ambulatory wounds and integrates a super-absorbent retention layer that locks exudate away from the wound bed even under pressure (for example, beneath compression bandaging or seated body weight). This reduces strikethrough and supports longer dressing intervals than basic non-bordered foams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the dressing be left in place during showering?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The polyurethane backing film is bacteria- and waterproof, allowing patients to shower with the dressing in place. Pat dry rather than rub. Replace the dressing if peri-wound skin becomes wet under the silicone interface or if leakage is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow frequently should Mepilex Border be changed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChange frequency is wound-led. For low-exuding wounds, the dressing may stay in place up to 7 days; in moderately exuding wounds, change every 3–5 days. Always change earlier if there is strikethrough at the dressing margin, dressing displacement, or new clinical signs of infection per the IWII Wound Infection Continuum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Mepilex Border available for community wound care in Singapore?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. emis.asia stocks Mepilex Border for restructured hospital wound care services, polyclinics, private clinics, community nursing teams, and individual patients across Singapore.
