The Mepitel Soft Silicone Wound Contact Layer can be left in place for several days, depending on the condition of the wound. The porous structure allows exudate to pass into an outer absorbent dressing, while preventing the outer dressing from sticking to the wound. This minimizes trauma and pain associated with dressing changes, and helps ensure undisturbed wound healing.

anecdotal accounts of acceptable billing codes for diagnoses in which
the identified product has been used in the past. Rehabmart does not
participate in the billing process and it is solely the caregivers responsibility
