Sorbaview Shield Window Dressing with Adhesive-Free Zone - Medium 3.75" x 5.5" Catheter Securement System

Advanced One-Step Catheter Securement and Site Protection System

Engineered for critical care environments, this innovative catheter securement dressing combines advanced moisture management technology with integrated stabilization features to deliver comprehensive central line protection. This one-step system merges the proven benefits of transparent window dressings with proprietary shield technology, creating a unified solution that helps reduce catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) while providing secure, reliable catheter stabilization for jugular and other central venous access sites.

Clinical Benefits and Infection Prevention Features

• Dual-Technology Design: Integrates transparent moisture-wicking dressing with built-in stabilization shield, eliminating the need for separate securement devices and streamlining your central line maintenance protocols
• Patented Moisture Management: Advanced absorbent pad actively wicks away excess moisture from the insertion site while maintaining breathability similar to natural skin, creating an optimal healing environment that helps prevent maceration and bacterial colonization
• Film Barrier Protection: Transparent semi-permeable film creates a sterile barrier that keeps microorganisms away from the catheter insertion site, supporting your facility's infection control standards and CRBSI prevention bundles
• Large Assessment Window: Generous transparent viewing area enables thorough visual inspection of the insertion site without dressing removal, supporting continuous monitoring protocols and reducing unnecessary dressing changes that could introduce contamination
• Hub Monitoring Window: Secondary small window provides clear visibility of catheter hubs and connections, facilitating quick assessment of hub integrity and connection security during routine care
• Integrated Shield Technology: Manufactured stabilization device engineered to absorb and deflect tugging forces before they reach the catheter, preventing accidental dislodgement, reducing phlebitis risk, and protecting catheter integrity during patient movement and care activities
• Reinforced Collar System: Specialized collar design locks catheter hubs firmly in position, preventing migration and maintaining consistent catheter placement throughout the dressing wear time
• Deep Notch Securement: Precision-engineered notch helps seal tubing securely in place, providing additional stabilization and preventing line displacement during patient repositioning or transport
• Adhesive-Free Zone: Strategic adhesive-free area protects sensitive skin while maintaining secure dressing adherence, reducing skin trauma and supporting patient comfort during extended wear periods

Design Features for Clinical Excellence

• Contoured Edge Technology: Specially shaped borders conform to body contours and help prevent premature edge lifting or peeling, extending dressing wear time and reducing unplanned dressing changes
• Soft Fabric Construction: Flexible, conformable material moves naturally with skin and patient movement, maintaining secure adherence without restricting mobility or causing discomfort
• Versatile Removal System: Integrated tabs and strategic perforations facilitate controlled, atraumatic dressing removal, minimizing skin stress and patient discomfort during dressing changes
• Universal Application Design: Optimized for jugular central line placement with adaptable configuration suitable for various catheter types and insertion sites

Ideal for Critical Care and Vascular Access Programs

This advanced catheter securement system serves intensive care units, oncology departments, dialysis centers, interventional radiology suites, emergency departments, and any clinical setting managing central venous catheters, PICC lines, or other critical vascular access devices. The medium 3.75" x 5.5" size provides optimal coverage for standard central line sites while maintaining flexibility for various patient anatomies.
