Targeting bacteria and protecting the skin - Molnlycke Health Care presents a new antimicrobial dressing
Hosted by Mölnlycke Health
0630 - 0745 Friday
Mölnlycke Health Care is a world leading manufacturer of single-use surgical and wound care solutions for the professional health care sector. Our Wound Care dressings offer gentle and effective wound healing and include a range of unique products based on a patented Safetac® soft silicone technology e.g. Mepilex® and Mepitel®, together with surgical, absorbent and fixation dressings, e.g. Mepore®, Mepore® IV and Mesorb®.
The Safetac soft silicone prevents the dressing
sticking to the wound bed yet adheres gently to the surrounding skin.
Dressings can be left in place for several days which allows cost
effective and undisturbed wound healing and the removal of dressings is
perceived to be gentle. This provides an improved patient experience at
dressing change and increased patient compliance.
We are delighted to be able to launch our newest addition to our range, at this years ANZBA meeting, Mepilex Ag. Mölnlycke Health Care, Inspiring Confidence.
Limited to 50 delegates.
