Biopatch Protective Disk with CHG

Biopatch Protective Disk with CHG is a hydrophilic polyurethane absorptive foam with Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG). The foam material absorbs up to eight times its own weight in fluid, while the CHG incorporated into the dressing inhibits bacterial growth under the dressing. Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a well-known antiseptic agent with broad-spectrum antimicrobial and antifungal activity.

Features:

• Intended to reduce local infections, catheter related bloodstream infections (CRBSI), and skin colonization of microorganisms commonly related to CRBSI, in patients with central venous or arterial catheters.
• Constructed from polyurethane foam allowing quick absorption of fluid decreasing the likelihood of skin maceration.
• Designed to deliver chlorhexidine gluconate a full 360° around the catheter insertion site providing optimized coverage and protection.
• BIOPATCH has been shown to reduce catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) by up to 60% in central venous and arterial catheters, even when infection rates are low.
• Quantity per Pack: 10 Units per Pack
