Mepitel® One is a wound contact layer designed to be used for wounds of low to moderate levels of wound fluid, such as skin tears, skin abrasions, surgical incisions, partial-thickness burns, traumatic wounds, partial- and full-thickness grafts, irradiated skin, leg and foot ulcers.
Key Benefits
- Transparent for easy wound monitoring
- One-sided Safetac® for easier application and removal
- Gentle on skin and reduces pain during dressing changes
- Allows wound fluid to pass to secondary dressings
- Minimises risk of maceration
Mepitel One should be applied directly to the wound with a secondary absorbent dressing then applied on top which should be secured with a tubular bandage, such as Tubifast® or equivalent.
When used in conjunction with a secondary absorbent dressing, such as Mesorb®, Mepitel One can be used as a protective layer on wounds with none to low amounts of fluid, for example blisters, fragile skin and exposed fragile tissues.
Mepitel One can be used by lay persons under supervision of Healthcare Professionals. If you are concerned about your wound, please contact your Healthcare Professional.
ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE. IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST CONTACT YOUR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL

When to use Mepitel One
Mepitel One is a wound contact layer designed for the management of a wide range of exuding wounds such as painful wounds, skin tears, skin abrasions, surgical incisions, partial thickness burns, traumatic wounds, blistering, lacerations, partial and full thickness grafts, leg and foot ulcers. It can also be used as a protective layer on non-exuding wounds and on areas with fragile skin.
The open structure of Mepitel One allows, where clinically indicated, topical ointments to pass through onto the wound.
It can be applied together with Mesorb®; or for high-exuding wounds with Mextra® Superabsorbent; with Tubifast® fixation; and also under compression bandages. Mepitel One can also be used in conjunction with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT).
