Description
SorbaView SHIELD Transparent Dressing (UDT Style)
SorbaView SHIELD is a single-step, straightforward dressing and securement system. Application does not require a secondary securement solution, and the result offers breathability and protection against bacteria that could contaminate an exit site.
SorbaView SHIELD offers the safety of a SorbaView dressing with the added benefit of the most secure integrated catheter stabilization device on the market: Centurion SHIELD Technology.
Benefits of SorbaView SHIELD Dressings
- Provide a breathable barrier against bacteria, viruses and other contaminants.
- Have built-in securement to withstand multi-directional tugging forces, keeping the catheter securely in place.
- Offer a longer wear time — as long as seven days for central lines and up to 96 hours for peripheral catheters.
- Won’t adhere to the skin or medical tubing.
SHIELD Technology guards the catheter from aggressive movements and eliminates the need for a secondary securement device. As a result, the dressing stays on, and catheters stay put. By keeping the catheter in place, the risk of complications such as dislodgement are dramatically reduced.
Benefits For Peripheral IV Sites
- IV lines stay put, even when patients are transferred between hospital departments, reducing the number of unscheduled restarts
- Prevents catheter movement, so the risk of an IV complication – such as dislodgement, phlebitis, thrombosis or infiltration – is dramatically decreased
- Wear time of 96 hours or until clinically indicated to meet the INS Standards of Practice guidelines for peripheral catheters
