Aquaguard disposable secondary dressing for showering

AquaGuard disposable secondary dressing patch shield for showering

AquaGuard^® is a disposable, impermeable moisture barrier that allows the clinician or patient to cover catheter sites, surgical incisions or dressings, to keep them dry when showering.

Patients

Patients love AquaGuard because it enables them to shower normally, restoring a feeling of comfort, normalcy and independence to a hospital stay or daily life at home. AquaGuard is easy to use, with adhesive that keeps moisture out but is gentle on delicate skin. AquaGuard also helps prevent the discomfort of unnecessary dressing and IV changes, which makes everyone happy.

Clinicians

“AquaGuard means no more leaky plastic bags or wet dressings!” Nurses know that plastic bags and tape fail at least 30% of the time, leading to wasted time and unnecessary dressing changes. Leading hospitals have demonstrated that AquaGuard reliably protects vulnerable sites from moisture and contamination while showering, which saves both valuable nursing time and costly supplies. AquaGuard also prevents
the risk of cross contamination from sharing plastic
wrap and tape supplies among multiple patients.

Administrators

By reliably protecting patients’ wound and IV sites while showering, AquaGuard reduces supply costs, nursing time
and infection risk while improving patient independence
and satisfaction.

Leading health care providers know that using FDA registered AquaGuard represents a best practice in patient care, which is why AquaGuard is specified by name in leading hospitals’ patient protocols. AquaGuard is manufactured in the USA, in an FDA registered facility, certified to ISO 13485:2003 standards, and adheres to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) to ensure product safety and quality.
