Risk category

Suitable for patients at risk to very high risk.

New Dermisplus® Prevent Tubes are innovative tri-block polymer gel tubes designed to redistribute pressure caused by medical devices from nasal cannulas to catheters. They are simple and easy to secure for every patient, any tube, in any location.

NEW Dermisplus® Prevent Tubes is ideal for respiratory and other medical tubing. Using a polymer gel, it protects skin by conforming to the patient’s anatomy and the device to effectively redistribute pressure, thereby reducing the risks of MDRPU (MDRPI).

Existing solutions require users to cut, shape, stick and pack. Dermisplus Prevents’ design allows for simple, easy and secure positioning, for every patient, whatever the tube or location.
