Product options
New Dermisplus® Prevent Tubes are innovative tri-block polymer gel tubes designed to redistribute pressure caused by medical devices from nasal cannulas to catheters. They are simple and easy to secure for every patient, any tube, in any location.
NEW Dermisplus® Prevent Tubes is ideal for respiratory and other medical tubing. Using a polymer gel, it protects skin by conforming to the patient’s anatomy and the device to effectively redistribute pressure, thereby reducing the risks of MDRPU (MDRPI).Â
Existing solutions require users to cut, shape, stick and pack. Dermisplus Prevents’ design allows for simple, easy and secure positioning, for every patient, whatever the tube or location.
HOW DOES DERMISPLUS PREVENT WORK?
Dermisplus Prevent redistributes peak pressures over a wider surface area so reducing the risk of pressure related tissue damage.
It can be used anywhere on the body which is identified as being ‘at risk’, especially where there are bony prominences for example, on heels, elbows and sacral areas but also under medical devices such as, medical tubing, mask straps and other equipment.
DERMISPLUS PREVENT OFFERS A 10% REDUCTION IN PEAK PRESSURES
The results of comparative testing of Dermisplus Prevent sheets in comparison to Aderma dermal pads, found that Dermisplus Prevent offers on average a 10% better peak pressure redistribution – so providing more effective pressure redistribution and helping to protect your patients from pressure damage.
DERMISPLUS PREVENT HELPING TO REDUCE COSTS
Using Dermisplus Prevent could reduce spend on pressure redistribution pads by up to 22% versus competitor products and so helping to reduce the financial burden associated with pressure ulcer prevention and management.
