Medika Melcura Mesh 10x10cm — Honey Mesh Wound Dressing (1 unit)
Medika Melcura Mesh 10x10cm is a sterile, single‑use honey‑impregnated mesh dressing designed to support wound healing, manage exudate and provide antimicrobial protection. Ideal for acute and chronic wounds, this non‑adherent mesh promotes a moist wound environment to encourage faster recovery and reduce adherence to the wound bed.
Key Benefits
- Medical‑grade honey formulation supports natural wound healing and antimicrobial activity.
- Mesh structure provides gentle, non‑adherent contact that reduces trauma on dressing changes.
- Maintains optimal moisture balance to promote autolytic debridement and tissue repair.
- Sterile, single‑unit packaging for reliable infection control and easy use in clinical or home settings.
- Can be trimmed to size to fit a wide range of wound types including minor burns, surgical wounds, ulcers and traumatic wounds.
Ingredients and Materials
This dressing combines a medical‑grade honey active with a sterile non‑adherent mesh carrier and a breathable backing. Typical composition includes:
- Active: medical‑grade honey (manuka or equivalent medical honey formulation)
- Carrier: sterile, non‑woven mesh (non‑adherent)
- Backing: breathable film to protect the wound while allowing moisture vapor transmission
- Packaging: single sterile pouch, 10 x 10 cm unit
Formulation is optimized for antimicrobial support, moisture balance and gentle contact with the wound bed.
How to Use
- Wash hands and prepare a clean field. Cleanse the wound according to clinical practice.
- Open sterile pouch and remove the Melcura Mesh using sterile technique.
- Apply the honey‑impregnated mesh directly to the wound surface with the honey side contacting the wound.
- Cover with a secondary absorbent dressing or fixation bandage as required to secure the mesh.
- Change dressing every 24–72 hours or sooner if clinically indicated (excessive exudate or signs of infection). Follow local clinical guidelines for frequency and use.
- Single use only. Do not re‑sterilize or reuse.
