IV Clear

CVC Securement Dressing

Product Description

IV CLEAR P.I.V dressing combines a transparent VIP window with a breathable-waterproof film with advanced adhesives and a reinforcing design to deliver strong catheter securement, ease of application, site visibility, and longer wear time. Resulting in better patient comfort and safety, fewer disruptions in IV site management, and potential cost and workflow benefits for a healthcare setting.

Features

Waterproof, Sterile Barrier

Waterproof film coating protects against external contaminants like liquids, bacteria and viruses.

Better securement and comfortable

*It can withstand higher pull force as a result less risk of dislodgement or movement.
*The conforming border and stabilization border help keep the dressing adhered even when patient moves.
*Specially designed adhesive allows moisture vapour to escape, reducing risk of maceration and skin irritation.
*Less trauma while removal.

Transparent, Breathable dressing

Easier monitoring of insertion site & early detection of complications (e.g., redness, leakage) while permiting moisture vapour exchange.

Simple Application

Simplifies one-handed application and reduces human error and variation.

Longer wear time + fewer dressing changes

Less frequent interruptions, less labour/time spent.

Potential cost savings

Fewer dressing changes, fewer catheter restarts, less risk of catheter-related complications

Aligns with best-practice guidelines

The product is designed to meet catheter securement device standards, transparent film dressings for I.V. sites, etc.

Instructions

1. Open package and remove sterile dressing.

2. Pre-cut strips can be used:

              Under the catheter wings or hub to protect the skin.

              Over the catheter wings or hub to enhance catheter stability.

              To secure the I.V. tubing or stabilise catheter tubing.

3. Remove backing paper and position dressing over catheter site at the desired location.

4. Ensure transparent film window sits over insertion site, and soft cloth section is over the catheter wings.

5. Do not stretch the dressing during application as tension may cause skin trauma.

6. Slowly remove the frame while firmly smoothing down the dressing edges to maximise fixation.

7. Enter the dressing change details onto the record label and fix onto dressing ensuring the window is not obscured.
