When used on bleeding wounds or wounds with high-viscosity exudate, Mepitel® One should be covered with a moist, absorbent dressing pad.

Further clinical studies and research are required to establish the safety and efficacy of several types of latest wound dressing methods. Analyzing novel materials for modern wound dressings with positive outcomes exhibited via numerous tests has resulted in innovation in enhancing the dressing materials available in the market. The recent trend in developing ideal dressing products has several advantages. It has various health benefits, including increased antibacterial activities, environmental benefits, high biological compatibility, eco-friendly, and ease of handling, especially with natural polymers. New materials have been designed to respond to the various situations and stages of wound healing. Wound dressing is an excellent strategy for wound care and therapy, as evidenced by the favorable findings of various trials. However, further research and development are needed to validate modern dressing methods. Currently available dressing methods are critical to establishing a moist environment for wound healing, pain relief, and antibacterial protection. Unfortunately, only a few clinical trials have been conducted to assess the efficacy of these popular modern dressings. Trials on wound dressing effectiveness are typically performed on less complicated wounds, resulting in oversimplification of the actual clinical aspects. Our thin Mepitel Film design is very conformable and adapts well to surface irregularities and different body contours. It provides a flexible transparent covering, to protect your patient's skin or wound from microbial contamination, fluid strikethrough, or other external contamination.
