  2. Opsite IV 3000 Cannula Dressing Moisture Responsive

The OPSITE IV3000 Cannula Dressing is a high-performance, moisture-responsive dressing designed specifically for securing IV cannulas and other intravascular devices. The advanced film technology of this dressing allows for exceptional breathability, comfort, and protection while maintaining secure adhesion around the cannula site. The  size is ideal for larger insertion areas, providing a reliable solution for effective IV site management in clinical and home care settings.

Key Features:

  • Moisture Responsive Breathable Film: The OPSITE IV3000 dressing features a unique moisture-responsive film that enhances breathability, allowing moisture vapor to escape while maintaining a waterproof barrier. This reduces the risk of maceration and keeps the skin dry, ensuring greater comfort and optimal conditions for wound and catheter site care.
  • Transparent and Sterile: The transparent film allows healthcare professionals to easily monitor the IV insertion site without needing to remove the dressing, reducing unnecessary dressing changes and minimizing the risk of infection. It also provides a sterile barrier, protecting the cannula site from external contaminants, including bacteria, fluids, and dirt.
  • Secure Adhesion: The OPSITE IV3000 offers strong yet gentle adhesion that ensures the dressing stays securely in place around the cannula, reducing the risk of dislodgement or movement. The dressing's adhesive is specially formulated to stick well while remaining easy to remove without causing discomfort or skin irritation.
  • Thin and Flexible: The thin polyurethane film is highly flexible and conformable, allowing the dressing to move naturally with the skin and adhere smoothly to the contours of the body. This makes it especially comfortable for patients and suitable for use in high-mobility areas.
  • Hypoallergenic and Latex-Free: OPSITE IV3000 is designed for sensitive skin and is made from hypoallergenic materials, making it suitable for patients prone to allergic reactions or skin sensitivities. It is also latex-free, ensuring it is safe for all users.
  • Reduces Infection Risk: By providing a waterproof and bacteria-proof barrier, OPSITE IV3000 helps reduce the risk of catheter-related infections. Its advanced breathability also aids in reducing moisture buildup, a common cause of infection at IV sites.

  • Securing IV cannulas
