When to use Mepilex Up
Mepilex Up is intended for the management of a wide range of exuding wounds in all healing stages such as venous leg ulcers (VLU) and diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The dressing change interval may be several days depending on the wound. Mepilex Up can be used under compression bandages and in combination with gels.
How to use Mepilex Up
1. Cleanse the wound in accordance with clinical practice. Dry the surrounding skin thoroughly. Select an appropriate dressing size considering the following: For low exuding wounds, the dressing should cover the surrounding skin by at least 1 cm for small wounds and at least 3 cm for large wounds. For moderately to highly exuding wounds, regardless of wound size, the dressing should cover the surrounding skin by at least 5 cm. The dressing may be cut to suit various wound shapes and locations.
2. Remove the first release film. Apply the adherent side to the wound. Remove the remaining release film and smooth down the dressing on the skin. Do not stretch the dressing.
3. When necessary, fixate Mepilex Up with a bandage or other fixation.
