Description
The BIOPATCH® CHG Disc Dressing is a specialized antimicrobial dressing designed to provide a protective barrier at the insertion site of vascular and non-vascular percutaneous medical devices. Constructed as a hydrophilic wound dressing, it effectively absorbs exudate while maintaining a clean and controlled environment around the catheter entry point. The disc shape, with a 0.75-inch diameter and a 1.5 mm center hole, allows it to fit securely around the device to ensure optimal coverage.
The core component of this dressing is chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG), an antimicrobial agent known for broad-spectrum activity against bacteria and fungi. By delivering continuous antimicrobial protection at the insertion site, the disc helps to reduce the risk of skin colonization and the development of catheter-related infections. Its hydrophilic properties further support moisture control, enhancing patient comfort and site protection.
This dressing is widely used for IV catheters, central venous lines, arterial catheters, dialysis catheters, midline catheters, drains, chest tubes, epidural catheters, and externally placed orthopedic pins. Its compatibility with multiple device types makes it versatile in clinical and hospital settings, particularly in intensive care and long-term catheter management.
