Why Choose 3M IV Dressing?


  • Comfort Adhesive Technology: 
    • Two innovative adhesives provide excellent hold, even under moist skin conditions
    • The firmer, patterned adhesive secures and protects the catheter and channels moisture from the skin, facilitating efficient moisture evaporation through the dressing's breathable film
    • A complimentary adhesive along the border provides added dressing securement
    • Although the adhesives build in strength during the first 24 hours after application and are secure throughout wear time, both remain gentle on the skin and release comfortably upon removal
  • Force-shifting notch:
    • The dressing notch shifts the pull force from the edge of the dressing to its center, then across the dressing
    • The notch not only enlists the entire dressing in securement, but its depth also diminishes the risk of catheter dislodgement
  • Stabilization border and tape strips:
    • The strength of the reinforced border enhances stabilization, while the dressing remains flexible and conformable
    • The addition of sterile tape strips, applied according to recommended best practices, allows the dressing to withstand an additional one-and-a-half pounds of pull force
  • Pressure-sensitive adhesives:
    • The dressing's pressure-sensitive adhesives flow into the irregular surface of the skin
    • Applying the dressing with firm pressure thus puts more adhesive in contact with a greater amount of skin surface for better securement
  • Strong but gentle dual adhesives:
    • Patterned film adhesive holds strongly, manages moisture, and releases gently
    • Stabilization border adhesive forms a seal around the catheter site
    • Pressure-sensitive adhesive conforms to skin and builds strength over 24 hours 
    • Latex-free
  • Deep force-shifting notch:
    • Enlists entire dressing in securement
    • Discourages edge lift
    • Reduces catheter manipulation on application
  • Picture-frame delivery:
    • Design makes placement accurate and easy
    • No-touch application provides maximum control of application without touching the dressing adhesive
  • Transparent film:
    • Provides continual site observation
    • Conformable and flexible, which reduces stress on the skin
    • Highly breathable for moisture evaporation and improved securement 
    • Waterproof, sterile barrier to external contaminants including liquids, bacteria, and viruses
  • Stabilization border:
    • Border strength yields improved securement
    • Reduces edge roll to maintain seal
    • Provides comfort and resists soiling, for a longer wear time
    • Special coating allows for easy tape strip removal to gain hub access without removing the dressing
  • Sterile tape strips:
    • Provide an all-in-one securement system
    • Improve protocol compliance
    • Precut for anchoring hubs, lumens, and tubing

What to buy with Tegaderm IV Dressing



How to apply 3M IV Dressing?

  1. Prepare the site according to your facility’s protocol. Allow all preps and skin protectants to dry completely. Open the package and remove the sterile dressing.
  2. Peel the liner from the dressing, exposing the adhesive surface. Flip dressing over so adhesive faces skin.
  3. Positioning the notched side of the dressing over the catheter hub, place the stabilization border over the catheter “wings.”
  4. Slightly overlap the stabilization border tabs under the hub or lumens. Press the transparent portion of the dressing into place.
  5. While slowly peeling off the paper frame, smooth dressing edges with fingertips.
  6. Smooth dressing from center toward edges, using firm pressure.
  7. Remove pre-cut sterile tape strips from the paper frame. Secure strips over the top of the stabilization border dressing and catheter hub, positioning strips parallel and close to one another.
  8. Stabilize any extensions and label dressing according to your facility’s protocol.

How to remove the 3M IV Securement Dressing?


  1. Remove the tape strips applied to the top of the dressing.
  2. Separate stabilization border tabs and gently peel the dressing back toward the insertion site.
  3. Slowly peel the dressing back over itself while stabilizing the catheter and supporting the surrounding skin. A medical adhesive remover can be used if needed
