Absorption and retention of exudate containing bacteria

Mextra quickly absorbs wound exudate containing bacteria. Mextra releases less bacteria* in the wound than other superabsorbent dressings** minimizing the risk of bacteria recontamination, as shown in the graph below.

Comfortable to use

Mextra contains soft borders (thanks to ultrasonic welding) and keeps a discreet low-profile when holding exudate, maintaining patient comfort.

Thanks to its comfort, conformability and ability to maintain structure and integrity, Mextra^® can contribute to patients continued mobility.

_{*The fold change is based on the average amount of bacteria released by a dressing
*In vitro studies comparing the ability to trap bacteria in the dressing have shown a statistically significant difference for Mextra^®. These are in vitro tests, the clinical relevance has not been investigated.
