Product Guide of 3M 1882 Tegaderm I.V. Advanced Securement Dressing
- Prepare site according to facility protocol. Ensure site is completely dry.
- Do not stretch the dressing at placement. Peel the liner from the dressing and place the dressing window over insertion site, aligning extension tubing with securement notch. Apply firm pressure to entire dressing with one hand for optimal adhesion, while removing border frame with opposite hand.
- Apply securement tape strip under the blood collection hub and overlap back onto the dressing. Remove adhesive-free tabs.
- Document the dressing change information on the label strip. Apply label strip on top of dressing, over catheter lumen(s). Remove adhesive-free tabs. Secure tubing with tape.
- Change the dressing:
- At least every 7 days
- If the dressing becomes loose, soiled or damp
- According to facility protocol
Removal
- Remove tape strips. Using a low and slow removal technique, start removing the dressing from where the catheter or tubing exits the dressing toward the catheter insertion site. Avoid skin trauma by peeling the dressing back rather than pulling it up from the skin.
