PICC Line Dressings
PICC line dressings create a protective barrier at the catheter insertion site to help prevent infection and skin breakdown. These sterile coverings use breathable, transparent materials that allow continuous site visibility while sealing out moisture and contaminants.
Many dressings include CHG-impregnated layers for antimicrobial protection, while others feature absorbent foam or nonwoven backings to manage exudate and reduce skin irritation
Choosing the right PICC line dressing
When selecting a PICC line dressing, consider the patient’s skin condition, dwell time, and environment. Transparent film dressings allow for continuous visual inspection, while foam or gauze-based options offer extra cushioning for sensitive skin. CHG-impregnated dressings are often preferred in clinical settings for their antimicrobial properties.
Dressings should adhere well without lifting, especially in high-moisture or high-mobility areas. Pediatric patients or individuals with fragile skin may benefit from low-trauma adhesives. For patients receiving home infusion therapy, change kits with prep materials and gloves simplify the dressing change process while maintaining sterility.
