Leukomed® IV Film Dressing

Description

Various shapes and sizes ensure secure and lasting fixation of central and peripheral venous catheters and cannulae with injection port. Leukomed® I.V. film protects reliably against infection.

Ultra-thin for high vapour transmission

• The ultra-thin polyurethane film protects reliably against water, bacteria and contaminants, yet granting a high moisture vapour transmission rate (MVTR).

The pattern for breathable film dressings

• By applying the skin-friendly adhesive in an intelligent pattern (“pattern coat”), secure fixation and lasting protection are achieved without impairing breathability.

Ease of application

• The unique application system featuring a translucent carrier film with a distinctive red stripe, assures precise placement over the wound or device.
