Smith & Nephew IV3000™ 1-Hand Catheter Dressing
Moisture Responsive, 6cm x 7cm – Box of 100

The Smith & Nephew IV3000™ 1-Hand Catheter Dressing features a one-hand delivery system, allowing for quick and easy aseptic application to all major catheter types. Its moisture-responsive REACTIC◊ film becomes more permeable in the presence of moisture, allowing it to evaporate from underneath the dressing and helping to minimise moisture build-up around the catheter site.

Featuring a high moisture vapour transmission rate (MVTR), this dressing helps reduce the risk of bacterial contamination and catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) associated with moisture accumulation at IV sites. The transparent, conformable construction allows for continual monitoring of the IV site, while securing strips increase conformability around the dressing area. The dressing can be worn for up to 7 days, helping reduce the need for unscheduled dressing changes.
