SureSite Transparent Film Dressing with Dual Handle Application System - Sterile Waterproof Wound Cover for IV Sites & Surgical Incisions

Advanced Transparent Film Dressing for Superior Wound Protection

This premium transparent film dressing delivers comprehensive protection for skin integrity, intravenous catheter sites, and post-surgical incisions. Engineered with a crystal-clear, breathable polyurethane film barrier, it functions as a dependable shield against water infiltration, bacterial contamination, and environmental pathogens—creating an optimal microenvironment that accelerates natural healing processes while significantly minimizing infection risk in clinical and home care settings.

Innovative Dual-Handle Sterile Application System

The revolutionary two-handle design represents a breakthrough in aseptic technique, enabling healthcare professionals and caregivers to achieve precise, contamination-free placement and removal without direct contact with the adhesive surface. This engineering advancement ensures maximum sterility throughout the dressing lifecycle, reducing cross-contamination risks and supporting infection control protocols in hospitals, outpatient clinics, surgical centers, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare environments.

Clinical-Grade Features & Benefits

• Dual-Handle Aseptic Application: Patented two-handle configuration facilitates sterile, touch-free placement and removal, eliminating adhesive surface contamination and maintaining strict infection control standards throughout application and disposal procedures.
• Optical-Grade Transparent Film: Ultra-clear medical-grade material enables continuous visual assessment and monitoring of wound beds, IV insertion sites, and catheter entry points without necessitating dressing removal—reducing patient discomfort and preserving the protective barrier integrity.
• Conformable & Flexible Design: Advanced film technology adapts seamlessly to complex body contours, joint movements, and anatomically challenging areas including elbows, knees, heels, and sacral regions, delivering secure adhesion with exceptional patient comfort during extended wear periods.
• Waterproof & Antimicrobial Barrier: Provides robust protection against fluid penetration, bacterial invasion, and viral transmission while maintaining critical moisture vapor transmission rates that prevent maceration and support healthy periwound skin integrity.
• Extended 7-Day Wear Duration: Engineered for prolonged application up to seven days depending on exudate volume and clinical assessment, substantially reducing frequency of dressing changes, minimizing patient discomfort, and optimizing nursing time efficiency.
• Hypoallergenic & Skin-Friendly: Latex-free, sterile formulation with gentle acrylic adhesive minimizes allergic reactions, skin irritation, epidermal stripping, and tissue trauma during removal—ideal for sensitive skin, pediatric patients, and geriatric populations.
• Versatile Clinical Applications: Functions effectively as both primary dressing for superficial wounds and secondary dressing over absorbent materials for moderate to heavily draining wounds across diverse care settings.
• FSA/HSA Eligible: Qualified medical expense for flexible spending accounts and health savings accounts, providing cost-effective wound care solutions for patients and healthcare facilities.

Clinical Indications & Applications

• Partial-thickness wounds including stage I and II pressure injuries
• Full-thickness wounds when used as transparent secondary dressing over absorbent primary layers
• Peripheral intravenous catheter site protection and stabilization
• Central venous catheter and PICC line insertion site coverage
• Post-operative surgical incision protection during initial healing phases
• Skin tears, minor lacerations, and superficial abrasions
• Prophylactic protection against friction-induced skin damage and shear injuries
• Donor site coverage following skin grafting procedures
• Protection of fragile skin in at-risk patient populations

Professional Application Instructions

1. Site Preparation: Cleanse and thoroughly dry the wound area and surrounding periwound skin according to facility protocols. Ensure complete moisture removal for optimal adhesion.
2. Dressing Positioning: Carefully peel back one corner of the protective paper liner and position the transparent film dressing to center over the wound or catheter insertion site, maintaining appropriate border margins.
3. Secure Application: While progressively removing the remaining protective paper backing, gently smooth the dressing outward from the center toward edges, ensuring complete skin contact and eliminating air pockets or wrinkles that could compromise the seal.
4. Border Reinforcement: Apply firm, even pressure around all dressing borders to activate the adhesive and create a secure, waterproof seal.
5. Dressing Replacement: Change the dressing immediately if edge lifting, fluid leakage, adhesive failure, or loss of barrier integrity occurs before the recommended wear time.

Change Frequency & Clinical Monitoring

May remain in place for up to 7 days based on wound exudate levels, clinical assessment, and institutional protocols. Dressing change frequency should be individualized according to drainage volume, wound progression, periwound skin condition, and patient-specific factors. Conduct regular visual assessments through the transparent film to monitor healing progress without disrupting the protective barrier.

Important: Single-use sterile device. Do not reuse. Discard according to facility biohazard waste protocols.
