Due to its high moisture permeability, SKINERGATE™ secures dressings and adheres well to the skin even for a long period of time. Suitable for those who may be easily prone to fragile skin, such as children and the elderly.
Product information compliant with
EU Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR)
Overview
The highly flexible polyolefin film tape fits the movement of the skin. Highly moisture-permeable film and skin-friendly acrylic adhesive reduce stratum corneum exfoliation when peeled off.
Usage
- Securing gauze.
- Securing catheters, tubes, and dialysis circuits.
Features
High moisture permeable tape to reduce skin maceration
- Both the adhesive and the film are highly moisture-permeable, which keeps the skin comfortable by reducing sweating-induced maceration even when the tape is applied for a long time.
Adapting to the movements of the skin
- The tape provides comfortable use because of its ability to fit well to the movements of the skin. The tape, consisting of a highly flexible polyolefin film, can be stretched very easily, as shown in the figure below, and therefore is adaptive to even slight movements of the skin.
Pain reduction when removing
- The adhesive was designed to be skin-friendly by reducing stratum corneum exfoliation when peeled off. The area rate of stratum corneumwhen being peeled off in SKINERGATE™ was less than that in our conventional product.
Stable securing
- SKINERGATE™ ensures a stable securing of dressings and devices onto the skin for a long time, as it prevents peeling off by sweat due to being highly permeable to moisture.
Precautions
- Do not apply the tape directly to a wound area.
- Apply the tape without stretching or tension more than necessary.
- Stop use if a dermal condition (rash, redness, blisters, skin peeling,itching, etc.) or a skin infection develops.
- Remove the used tape slowly from the skin.
Storage Instructions
- Store at room temperature, away from water, high temperatures, high humidity and direct sunlight.
