3M™ Tegaderm™ 1624W Transparent Frame Dressing, 6 x 7 cm.

Waterproof, sterile barrier: protects the I.V. site or wound from external contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, blood and body fluids – in vitro testing shows that the transparent film provides a viral barrier from viruses 27 nm in diameter or larger while the dressing remains intact without leakage

Breathable film lets oxygen in and moisture vapour out

Picture-frame delivery makes placement accurate and easy, minimising potential to stick to gloves or to itself

Transparent dressing allows for continuous visibility to the I.V. insertion site

Dressing flexes with skin for greater patient comfort

May be worn up to 7 days

Radiologically transparent. Tegaderm products can be safely left on patient’s skin during radiotherapy treatments. Dressing does not act as bolus material, with or without 3M™ Cavilon™ No Sting Barrier Film (CNSBF)

Can be used to maintain a moist wound environment to facilitate autolytic debridement

Helps to prevent skin breakdown caused by friction
