Video Transcription
Are you spending too much time in the O.R. with tape and gauze?
Are you worried about surgical site infections?
Watch Nurse Marcia as she struggles to apply tape and gauze over her patient's surgical incision. Nurse Sandy can't believe how much time it takes to apply the tape. If Nurse Marcia knew it cost $66 a minute in the O.R., she might choose a less time-consuming method.
Nurse Sandy has the easier solution with the Tegaderm +Pad Film Dressing. It takes less than 30 seconds to apply and it's waterproof. Plus, it's an all-in-one application that provides a viral and bacterial barrier. A single surgical site infection can cause the facility up to $29,000 per Healthcare-Acquired Infection depending on the pathogen and procedure.
Nurse Marcia would have to use 64 layers of gauze to get the same level of protection against viral and bacterial infections as the Tegaderm +Pad Film Dressing. Good luck taping over that. And you'll have to do it again tomorrow to change the dressing.
Nurse Marcia is grateful she learned about Tegaderm +Pad Film Dressing. Your patients will thank you too.
"And I can take a shower later in the afternoon. It's waterproof. It saves time and money. It requires fewer dressing changes. It helps reduce the risk of Surgical Site Infections and provides a viral and bacterial barrier. Try it today.
