Post Market Clinical Follow-up Study (MxB Po01)

September 26, 2014 updated by: Molnlycke Health Care AB

A Multi-centre, Post CE-mark, Open Investigation to Evaluate the Performance of a Flexible Self-adherent Absorbent Dressing Coated With a Soft Silicone Layer After Hip or Knee Arthroplasty

The overall rationale for this study is to evaluate the clinical performance potential for Mepilex Border Post-Op in the ability to minimise the risk of blistering, maceration and less dressing change due to high absorption capacity. This study is a part of Post Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Rated 'Very Good to Excellent' for Comfort, Conformability and the Acceptability of the Dressing.
Time Frame: 7 days
The comfort, conformability and the acceptability of the dressing were measured on all visit in the study, by a study nurses. The patient had to answer questions regarding, the size of the dressing, shape of the dressing, Visibility beneath the dressing, ease of the application of the dressing, ease of removal of the dressing, overall experience of the use of the dressing, notice any pain at dressing change, Comfort of their dressing, overall experience of their dressing. The patient could chose between 1 Good, 2 Very good, 3 Excellent.In most cases, the patient chose very good to excellent for both hip and knee surgery
