Skin-Prep Wipes Protective Barrier Wipe (50)

SKIN-PREP is a liquid film-forming dressing that, upon application to intact skin, forms a protective film to help reduce friction during removal of tapes and films. SKIN-PREP can also be used to prepare skin attachment sites for drainage tubes, external catheters, surrounding ostomy sites and adhesive dressings. 

Features & Benefits

• Helps tape and film adhesion.
• Fast and easy to use, only one coat is required, so less product is used per application.
• Removes easily using skin cleanser or soap and water, so unsanitary residue isn't left in or around the wound area.
• Applies easily, even on awkward areas such as elbows, knees, and heels. Moves naturally with patients' skin and won't crack or peel. 
• Allows skin to "breathe" so tapes and films adhere better.
• May increase intervals between dressing changes.
• Pediatrician tested 

Indications

• Apply as a coating to prepare the skin for adhesives.
• Provides a protective interface that may reduce friction during the removal of tape.
• For skin attachment sites: drainage tubes, external catheters, surrounding ostomy sites and other adhesive dressings.
• For use in sensitive stoma areas as a skin protectant.
• May reduce irritation from contact with body wastes and stoma fluid.
• Forms a protective film on skin which may reduce exposure to urine and feces. 
• SKIN-PREP should only be used on intact skin.
