Description

Who Uses Mesalt? Individuals treating medium to heavily exuding and inflamed wounds in a home or a professional setting. It can also be used by those with deep cavity wounds such as venous ulcers or pressure sores.

Why They Love Mesalt: Mesalt is impregnated with sodium chloride that stimulates the cleansing of wounds. It absorbs wound exudate and necrotic material from the wound bed, keeping it clean and free of bacteria. The dressing is applied dry and in one piece, making it easy to put on and remove.

 

Mesalt Wound Packing DressingOverview

Mesalt Sodium Chloride Impregnated Dressings assist with the management of heavily discharging wounds. Mesalt releases sodium chloride (common salt) when it comes into contact with the wound and encourages cleansing, especially in those wounds in the inflammatory phase. It absorbs wound exudate, bacteria, and necrotic material to facilitate the natural healing process.

Mesalt Uses

The Mesalt Dressing for hypergranulation uses sodium chloride (common salt) to absorb moisture and discharge from a wound. This salt-impregnated dressing stimulates the natural cleansing mechanism and supports healing. It keeps bacteria out of the wound bed and also helps prevent further bacterial growth. As such, it is ideal for infected wounds or those at risk of becoming infected. The Mesalt wound packing ribbon is used for cavity wounds such as ulcers, surgical wounds, or pressure sores. 

 

Mesalt Alternatives

A moist wound environment is necessary to facilitate the healing process. Since the Mesalt dressing and Mesalt ribbon packing support cleansing and fluid absorption, they are not recommended for wounds that are not heavily draining. Try a gel or a hydrocolloid dressing instead. In addition, Mesalt should not be used when they may come into contact with exposed tendons or bones.

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 

How often should the Mesalt be changed?
Changing will vary as it depends on the amount of exudate.

Does Mesalt need to be moistened before application?
No, it is applied dry.

Can Mesalt be used on its own?
No, a secondary dressing such as the Mepilex Border 295200 is needed to keep it in place.
