Transparent protective film for the secure fixation of bandages and tubes

3M Tegaderm Roll is a transparent, non-sterile, and elastic polyurethane film with a latex-free, hypoallergenic polyacrylate adhesive. It serves as a reliable protective film for sensitive but still intact skin and is particularly suitable for people with sensitive or allergy-prone skin. Thanks to its transparency, the underlying skin or dressing can be checked at any time without having to remove the film.

Applications and benefits

Tegaderm Roll can be used as a secondary dressing in combination with sterile dressings to securely fix them to the skin. As a primary dressing, it protects vulnerable skin areas from mechanical friction and external influences. The film is also suitable for fixing medical devices such as IV lines or drainage tubes directly to the skin. Furthermore, it can be used as a waterproof cover for medical devices or primary dressings to protect them from external fluids or water.

Instructions for use

The skin should be clean and dry before applying Tegaderm Roll. Cut a suitable piece from the roll and place the film without tension on the desired area of ​​skin or over the dressing. Ensure that the film lies completely flat and smoothly to guarantee secure fixation and reliable protection against external fluids. When fixing IV lines or drainage tubes, the film should be applied in such a way that the tubes are held securely without kinking.

Warning notices

Tegaderm Roll is non-sterile and should not be applied directly to open wounds or damaged skin. Do not use the film if you have a known intolerance to any of its ingredients. If signs of skin irritation, redness, or itching occur, discontinue use and remove the film. If you are unsure about its use or have any existing skin conditions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
