The prevention of pressure sores is the most important reason for these miracle bandages.I can't say enough about how superior the mepilex product from Molynlycke is from others on the market.I have not tried the others I,e.,smith-nephew, demora?other cheaper brands for more than a day or two . Mepilex can protect your skin for a week .I've used them to protect my daughter with special needs for 12 years and her skin does not have skin breakdown or any sores.She is non ambulatory and type 1 diabetic. They are pricey, no doubt about it but worth every penny to prevent damage to my baby girl . Best tip I ever got from a nurse who introduced these when in the hospital.
