Smith & Nephew 4811 Melolite Low Adherent Absorbent Dressings 5cm x 7.5cm

MEOLITE Low Adherent Absorbent Dressings consist of a highly absorbent cotton and acrylic fiber pad heat bonded on one side to a very thin perforated polyester film. The film side of the dressing is placed next to the wound.

Features:

• Low adherent perforated film: Allows for rapid drainage of exudate, reducing trauma to healing tissue.
• Highly absorbent cotton/acrylic pad: Provides patient comfort, cushions, and protects.
• Hydrophobic backing layer: Retains its integrity when cut, safe in use, inert and non-sensitizing, delays time to strike through.

Benefits:

• Rapid drainage of exudate reduces trauma to healing tissue.
• Patient comfort: Cushions and protects, minimizes pain on removal.
• Easy to cut to shape and retains its integrity when cut.
• Safe in use: Inert and non-sensitizing.
• Delays time to strike through, requiring fewer dressing changes.

Indications:

MEOLITE is suitable for post-operative and casualty use, particularly for clean and sutured wounds, abrasions and lacerations, and minor burns.
