Product Description:

Medical tape is an adhesive product specially designed for use in the medical and health care fields. It has the characteristics of softness, water resistance, breathability and non-irritation. It is usually used to fix medical devices, dressings or other medical supplies to ensure their safety and comfort on the patient. Here is some basic information about medical tape:

1. Materials and structure: Medical tape is usually coated with a soft adhesive (such as acrylic series adhesive) on a medical-grade substrate, which can be a non-woven fabric, plastic film or paper. These materials are precisely combined to achieve specific adhesion, breathability and comfort.

2. Uses and functions: Medical tape is widely used in medical environments. The main uses include but are not limited to the following aspects:

3. Dressing fixation: Used to fix medical dressings or bandages to ensure their stability and fit on the patient’s skin.

4. Catheter fixation: Used to fix medical devices such as infusion tubes and urinary catheters to prevent them from shifting or falling off.

5. Skin protection: Used during surgery to protect the patient’s skin from friction and damage caused by surgical operations or medical equipment.

6. Marking and identification: The skin can be marked or identified so that medical staff can perform correct operations or treatments.

7. Characteristics and selection: The selection of medical tape usually considers the following factors:

8. Adhesion and durability: The tape must have sufficient adhesion to ensure its firm fixation on the patient’s skin without causing discomfort or damage.

9. Breathability and comfort: For tapes that need to be used for a long time, breathability and comfort are very important to reduce skin moisture and discomfort.

10. Non-irritation: The material of medical tape must be gentle on most people’s skin to avoid causing allergic or irritating reactions.

11. Hygienic operation: When using medical tape, medical staff usually ensure that the tape and the attachment site are clean and dry to prevent infection or other complications. In addition, regular replacement of tape is also one of the important measures to maintain skin health.

In short, medical tape is an indispensable auxiliary tool in medical practice. It not only ensures the effective use of medical equipment and dressings, but also improves the comfort and treatment effect of patients.
