Below are the key product attributes and specifications that provide detailed information about this item:

The Molnlycke Mepilex Ag Antimicrobial Foam Dressing (287090) is a sterile, silver-coated foam dressing designed for effective wound management. The Safetac technology minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes by adhering only to dry skin, not the moist wound bed, ensuring gentle removal. It seals wound edges to reduce maceration risk while maintaining a moist healing environment.

The breathable polyurethane backing film provides a waterproof, bacteria-proof, and viral barrier, protecting the wound from external contaminants. The silver antimicrobial action begins within 30 minutes and remains effective for up to seven days, helping prevent infection.
