Molnlycke Mesalt Sodium Chloride Impregnated Dressing

How To Use Mesalt Impregnated Dressing?

1. Gently cleanse the wound area. Do not blot excess moisture.
2. Fluff Mesalt and apply to wound ensuring the dressing is contained within the wound margins. Pack loosely into deep wounds.
3. Cover with Alldress, or Ete and Mefix.

Mesalt Dressing Change Frequency

• Mesalt dressings should be changed every 24 hours or more frequently if indicated by wound drainage or existing protocol.

Important Note:

• Discontinue use of Mesalt when there is insufficient wound drainage to fully moisten the Mesalt dressing within a 24 hour period
• Mesalt is intended for short-term use up to 30 days
• There may be an increase in the amount of drainage and the size of the wound during initial treatment with Mesalt due to the reduction of edema and removal of wound debris

Mesalt Contraindications

• Wounds with little or no drainage

Precautions:

• Mesalt should not come into direct contact to exposed bone or tendon.
• Mesalt should not be used on patients with a known allergy to the dressing or its components.
• Mesalt should not be used on dry wounds.
• Infected wounds should be evaluated on a regular basis and treated appropriately.
• Do not reuse. If the reused performance of the product may deteriorate, cross-contamination may occur.
• Sterile. Do not use if inner package is damaged or opened prior to use. Do not re-sterilize.

   Morons

   You have good products and good prices, but your marketing people are brain dead morons. I got three emails from you today. Some days it's 4, and they all have different discounts. You sent me 2 emails on Christmas! Your marketing department is going to put you out of business. If this keeps up I will go to another place.

   Great Product, Awful Shipping Service

   The product is good, but shipping service is awful. Paid excessively high fee for overnight shipping but actual delivery was the same speed as regular ground service. I had to invest inordinate amount of time following up on order because of lack of communication of order status. Despite poor service, Mesalt products are very good

   I have not used this

   I have not used this product yet from you. But i did use it last September and it was wonderful to dry up the sores I had on my ankle. So it seems I have another break out and I wanted to be sure I had enough of the Mesalt. Thank you so much.

2. Q

   Question: Why is there an increase in wound size at first?

   Asked by Lily on Mar 18, 2017 Report
   • A
     Answer: You may notice an increase in the amount of drainage and the size of the wound during the initial treatment with Mesalt due to the osmotic action of the hypertonic saline in the wound bed and
     the reduced edema in the surrounding tissues.

3. Q

   Question: After how long the dressing should be changed?

   Asked by James on Mar 18, 2017 Report
   • A
     Answer: Ideally Mesalt Dressing should be changed every 24 hours or more frequently if indicated by wound drainage since when Mesalt is fully saturated it will not release sodium chloride.
