Our Cannula Fixation Dressing is designed to deliver a dependable, hygienic, and skin-friendly solution for securing intravenous lines, catheters, and other clinical tubing. Engineered with precision and developed for clinical efficiency, this dressing ensures that essential medical access points remain stable, protected, and comfortable for patients across multiple care environments. From its advanced adhesive system to its breathable protective materials, every aspect is crafted to support both healthcare professionals and patients through safe, seamless, and consistent fixation.

Product Functions & Uses

The core function of the Cannula Fixation Dressing is to provide secure, long-lasting fixation for cannulas, catheters, and tubing while reducing the risk of accidental displacement. Its multi-layer structure protects the insertion site against bacteria, friction, and moisture infiltration, helping maintain a clean and controlled environment.

Key uses include:

• Securing peripheral IV cannulas, avoiding line migration or accidental removal.
• Protecting catheter insertion points from external contaminants.
• Supporting infusion therapy, ensuring stable tubing alignment.
• Reducing skin irritation through hypoallergenic, gentle-to-remove adhesive.
• Eliminating the need for traditional taping, enabling a faster, more hygienic fixation method.

Our dressing is intentionally designed for daily clinical practice, improving workflow efficiency while ensuring reliable patient care.

Product Features

1. High-Adhesion Medical Grade Adhesive

The adhesive layer ensures firm fixation without causing unnecessary discomfort or skin trauma. Even during extended wear or patient movement, the dressing maintains strong adherence while allowing for painless removal.

2. Breathable, Moisture-Vapor-Permissive Film

The semi-permeable polyurethane film allows heat and moisture to escape while blocking external liquids and pathogens. This supports long-term wear and reduces maceration around the insertion site.

3. Transparent Window for Visual Monitoring

The central transparent zone provides continuous visibility of the puncture site. Clinicians can easily assess skin condition, detect inflammation, or monitor bleeding without removing the dressing.

4. Soft, Ergonomic Pad Structure

Cushioning foam or non-woven pads reduce pressure at critical points, minimizing friction caused by tubing movements. This design enhances patient comfort and promotes stable cannula positioning.

5. Pre-Cut, Easy-Apply Format

Each dressing includes pre-cut slits, tabs, or anchor points that simplify application. The streamlined design reduces handling time and ensures consistent placement even during fast-paced clinical procedures.

Product Instructions

• Prepare the Skin: Clean and disinfect the insertion area thoroughly. Ensure the skin is completely dry before applying the dressing to achieve optimal adhesion.
• Position the Cannula or Catheter: Confirm that the catheter is properly placed and stabilized. Avoid unnecessary movement during application.
• Apply the Dressing: Remove the release liner, position the transparent window directly over the insertion site, and secure the base firmly onto the skin. Gently press to smooth out air bubbles.
• Anchor the Tubing: Use integrated fixation tabs or adhesive wings to secure tubing along the direction of venous flow or clinical preference.
• Check the Seal: Ensure that edges are fully adhered to prevent moisture or microorganism infiltration.
• Routine Replacement: Replace dressing according to infection-control guidelines, or sooner if it becomes loose, wet, contaminated, or soiled.
