Conformable, Adhesive Retention Tape Hypafix® Dressing Retention Sheets are self-adhesive, non-woven fabric sheets for secure and rapid fixation. They are made from white polyester material and coated with hypoallergenic adhesive on quick-release backing paper. Hypafix also provides complete coverage of the entire dressing, thus reducing the risk of contamination. Its excellent conformability simplifies shaping around joints and awkward body contours to allow the patient greater freedom of movement.
The tape is permeable to both air and moisture, helping to reduce the risk of maceration. Hypafix is radiotransparent, so it does not have to be removed for either radiotherapy or X-ray examinations. 100% latex-free components eliminate the risk of latex reactions.
Benefits:
Combines security with comfort - highly conformable
Provides reliable fixation for catheters and drainage tubes
Reduces risk of casual contamination
Allows joints to be dressed without constraining movement
*Note: Always ensure the fixation edge is adequate when cutting Hypafix to size. At least 2cm from the edge of the wound dressing is desirable.
