Mepilex Heel 5" x 8"

Absorbent soft silicone dressing, shaped for heel wounds

Mepilex Heel minimizes trauma to the wound and pain to the patient at dressing changes. The Safetac technology prevents Mepilex Heel from sticking to the wound bed yet adheres gently to the surrounding skin allowing easy application of secondary fixation. Mepilex Heel absorbs exudate effectively and ensures a low risk of maceration.

Mepilex Heel conforms well to the heel preventing exudate from pooling and causing maceration. Mepilex Heel is ideal for most shapes or sizes of feet and may be used on other areas of the body as well.

Areas of use

Mepilex Heel is designed for a wide range of moderately exuding wounds on the heel or malleolus such as:

• pressure ulcers
• diabetic foot ulcers
• traumatic wounds
