Medline Centurion Sorbaview Shield Catheter Positioning Dressing - 7-Day Wear, Latex-Free, Universal CVC Securement

Advanced Catheter Securement with Proven Infection Prevention

The Medline Centurion Sorbaview Shield Catheter Positioning Dressing delivers clinical-grade protection and securement for central venous catheters, combining a breathable antimicrobial barrier with integrated stabilization technology. Engineered specifically for critical care environments, this advanced dressing system provides a proven defense against bacteria, viruses, and environmental contaminants while maintaining secure catheter placement through multi-directional tugging forces and patient movement.

Universal Compatibility for Multiple Catheter Types

Designed with versatility in mind, the Sorbaview Shield features a universal configuration with strategically placed perforations, slits, and notches that accommodate numerous central venous catheter types. Whether you're working with internal jugular (IJ) lines, dialysis catheters, introducer sheaths, or multi-lumen catheter systems, this dressing adapts seamlessly to your clinical needs. The intelligent design eliminates the need for multiple product SKUs while ensuring consistent, reliable securement across diverse catheter applications.

Ergonomic Contouring for Patient Comfort

Patient comfort meets clinical efficacy with the Sorbaview Shield's anatomically contoured design. The dressing naturally conforms around the patient's chin and shoulder areas, creating a stable, comfortable fit that reduces skin irritation and improves wear tolerance during the full seven-day application period. This ergonomic approach minimizes patient complaints while maintaining the critical seal needed for infection prevention.

Clinical Benefits & Key Features

• Extended 7-Day Wear Time: Reduces dressing change frequency, lowering labor costs and minimizing disruption to the catheter site while maintaining sterile barrier integrity throughout the wear period
• Proven Infection Barrier: Provides documented protection against bacterial colonization and contaminants, significantly reducing the risk of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) in accordance with evidence-based care protocols
• Integrated Securement System: Built-in catheter stabilization withstands multi-directional forces, preventing catheter migration, dislodgement, and accidental removal that can compromise patient safety and treatment continuity
• Latex-Free Construction: Safe for latex-sensitive patients and healthcare workers, eliminating allergic reaction risks in clinical settings
• Non-Sensitizing Medical-Grade Adhesive: Gentle yet secure adhesion minimizes skin trauma during application and removal while maintaining reliable bond strength throughout the wear cycle
• Streamlined Application Process: Intuitive design enables quick, consistent placement by clinical staff, reducing application time and improving compliance with standardized securement protocols
• Complementary Closure Piece: Engineered closure component integrates seamlessly with the dressing profile, providing additional reinforcement and securement without adding bulk or compromising patient comfort
• Standards Compliance: Eliminates inconsistent securement methods and supports adherence to INS (Infusion Nurses Society) standards of care and CDC guidelines for central line management

Cost-Effective Clinical Solution

By extending wear time to seven full days, the Sorbaview Shield delivers measurable cost savings through reduced dressing inventory consumption, decreased nursing labor hours for dressing changes, and lower overall supply chain expenses. The universal design further optimizes inventory management by consolidating multiple catheter-specific products into a single, versatile solution.
