Key Features for the Tegaderm™ Vapour Permeable Film Dressing:
Superior Protection: Acts as a waterproof and sterile barrier, effectively shielding I.V. sites and wounds from harmful external agents such as bacteria, viruses, blood, and bodily fluids. In vitro studies demonstrate the dressing’s ability to block viruses as small as 27 nanometers, offering reliable viral protection without leakage.
Enhanced Healing Environment: The breathable film allows oxygen to reach the skin while permitting moisture vapor to escape. This vapor permeability helps prevent maceration and skin irritation, promoting faster and more comfortable wound healing.
Transparent Monitoring: The crystal-clear film enables continuous visual assessment of the wound or catheter site without needing to remove the dressing, reducing the risk of infection and minimizing patient discomfort.
Easy and Accurate Application: The unique picture-frame delivery system simplifies dressing placement, preventing it from sticking to gloves or folding onto itself during application. This precise fit enhances patient comfort and dressing efficacy.
Comfort and Safety: Made from a soft, flexible material that conforms gently to body contours, Tegaderm™ dressings provide secure adhesion without restricting movement. Being latex-free, they are safe for patients with latex allergies or sensitivities.
Recommended Usage:
Ideal for protecting catheter sites, peripheral IVs, and superficial wounds that require a moist healing environment.
Suitable for use in hospitals, clinics, and home care settings.
For showering or bathing, it is recommended to use an additional waterproof cover over the dressing and catheter site to maintain protection.
