Additional Information:
Perforated and tears easily in clean straight lines, cross–wise and length–wise without fraying edges.
Ideal for use where tape width must be customised.
Breathable, making it gentle on the skin and reducing the risk of maceration.
The tape is easy to remove and leaves minimal adhesive residue.
Can be written on, sticks well to itself and easy to use with gloves on.
Always ensure skin is clean and dry before applying tapes, clip hair on the tape adhesion skin area if necessary. Always select a breathable tape where repeated taping is required, or the skin is fragile, this will help to reduce trauma/damage to the skin.
Consider using a stretchable tape if there is a risk of swelling.
Do not encircle an entire limb with tape, subsequent swelling may affect circulation. Replace or reposition tape if swelling, oedema or loss of tension in dressing occurs.
Intended uses: light strapping (e.g immobilising fingers and toes), securing dressings, anchoring tubes/devices (catheters, probes cannulae and nasogastric).
