Benefits .................................................................................................................................................................

Reduces risk of infection by preventing moisture accumulation
Pharmapore-PU I.V.
has a unique molecular structure which is significantly more permeable to water vapor than ordinary films. This prevents the accumulation of moisture underneath the dressing associated with bacterial growth and reduces the risk of catheter-related infection.

Minimizes dressing changes
The higher permeability of Pharmapore®-PU I .V. keeps the skin drier to improve  adherence and reduce the number of dressing changes.
Greater patient comfort
Pharmapore-PU I.V. is easy on skin. Its hypoallergenic adhesive and highly permeable PU film prevent skin maceration or irritation and results in improved patient comfort.
Excellent catheter stability
The highly adaptable Pharmapore™-PU IV film allows the patient to move freely and yet will remain firmly in place around the catheter hub to ensure excellent fixation.

Convenient visual inspection
Pharmapore-PU I.V. is transparent and so allows regular inspection of the catheter site for signs of infection or phlebitis without the need of dressing removal.
