OpSite IV3000 is a 1 Hand is a moisture responsive transparent film dressing specifically designed to meet the needs of catheter fixation and to keep the catheter site dry. Independent clinical experts have proven OpSite IV3000 to offer safe, secure and cost effective catheter fixation and believe it to be ‘a technological advance for IV site care’. The 1 Hand delivery system provides quick and easy aseptic application to all major catheter types. 

• Moisture responsive high Moisture Vapour Transmission Rate film
• Grid pattern adhesive
• Transparent & conformable
• 1 Hand delivery system

• Reduces risk of infection by preventing moisture accumulation: The patented Reactic film in OpSite IV3000 has a unique molecular structure which is significantly more permeable to water vapor than ordinary films. This prevents the accumulation of moisture underneath the dressing so reducing bacterial growth and the risk of catheter-related infection.
• Minimizes unscheduled dressing changes: The higher permeability of OpSite IV3000 keeps the skin drier so improving dressing adherence and reducing the number of unscheduled dressing changes.
• Greater patient comfort:OpSite IV3000 is kind to the patient’s skin. Its low allergy adhesive and highly permeable Reactic film help prevent skin maceration or irritation and result in improved patient comfort.
• Excellent catheter stability: The highly conformable OpSite IV3000 film allows the patient to move freely and yet will remain firmly adhered around the catheter hub so ensuring excellent fixation.
• Convenient visual inspection: OpSite IV3000 is transparent and so allows regular inspection of the catheter insertion site for signs of infection or phlebitis without the need for dressing removal.
• Waterproof barrier: OpSite IV3000 is waterproof and allows the patient to bathe or shower with the dressing in situ.
• Easy application and removal: The 1 Hand delivery system is designed to provide quick and easy aseptic application. It also allows the dressing to be applied with 1 Hand if required leaving the other hand free to stabilize the catheter or patient. The unique grid pattern adhesive makes dressing removal easier than with ordinary films as it reduces pain on removal and leaves less adhesive residue on the patients skin.

OpSite Flexigrid is a transparent, adhesive film with a unique wound measurement grid. The film is moisture vapor permeable, conformable and extensible. It is widely used to provide a moist wound healing environment for superficial wounds; it is also ideal for use as a secondary dressing.

OpSite Flexigrid is indicated for the management of:

• Superficial wounds, such as shallow pressure sores, minor burns, cuts and abrasions.
• Use as a secondary dressing, for example over IntraSite Gel Amorphous Hydrogel Dressing or Allevyn Cavity Cavity Wound Dressing.
• To provide catheter fixation.

OpSite Flexigrid may be used on clinically infected wounds if the following precautions are followed:

• The patient should be under medical/clinical supervision.
• The dressing should be changed daily.
• The patient should be receiving suitable systemic treatment.

Immuno-compromised patients and diabetic patients may require extra supervision. Care should be taken to avoid skin damage by repeated applications on patients with thin or fragile skin.

In common with all adhesive products, some cases of irritation and/or maceration of the skin surrounding the wound have been reported. It should be noted that inappropriate use or too frequent dressing changes, particularly in patients with fragile skin, can result in skin stripping.

OpSite Flexigrid has set the standard in moist wound healing by retaining the natural wound exudate. OpSite Flexigrid provides a high moisture vapor permeability allows excess exudate to evaporate, helping prevent skin maceration.

Superior film with acrylic adhesive: The OpSite Flexigrid film is highly extensible and conformable, which combined with its high moisture vapor permeability, means the dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days. This minimizes interference at the wound site and reduces the amount of nursing time required.

Waterproof: OpSite Flexigrid is resistant to water and body fluids, allowing the patient to bathe without changing dressings. It also aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination.

Simple, effective application technique: OpSite Flexigrid provides a simple and effective application system. The flexible carrier enables single handed application allowing the dressing to conform to the contours of the body. Its transparency enables accurate positioning over the wound site.

Adaptable to Awkward Areas: OpSite Flexigrid has been designed to be adaptable for use on all areas of the body. It can be easily cut into strips or shapes for application to awkward areas such as heels, elbows and knees.

Unique Wound Management Grid: OpSite Flexigrid incorporates a unique wound measurement device which allows simple but accurate assessments of the healing process to be made. After tracing the edges of the wound, the Flexigrid carrier can be removed and stored in the patient’s notes.

Opsite Post OP Dressing is a post-operative dressing combines the advantages of the highly permeable OpSite IV3000 film with an absorbent dressing pad to provide a superior dressing for wounds closed by primary intention, where a moist wound healing environment is unnecessary or even detrimental to healing. 

Waterproof: The OpSite Post-Op film is impermeable to water and body fluids, allowing the patient to shower without changing dressings.

• Bacterial Barrier: The OpSite Post-Op film provides a bacterial barrier, helping to reduce the risk of secondary infection.
• High MVTR: OpSite Post-Op has a unique molecular structure that 'switches on' in the presence of moisture, preventing accumulation of moisture underneath the dressing, which reduces bacterial growth and the risk of maceration.
• Transparent Film: The clear film allows the user to monitor the level of fluid and check for infection without removing the dressing, thus increasing wear time.
• Absorbent, Low-adherent Pad: The thick pad is highly absorbent, minimizing the number of dressing changes whilst protecting the wound from further injury. The low-adherent wound contact layer leaves the wound site clean and comfortable, reducing the pain when changing the dressing.
• Conformable: OpSite Post-Op is highly conformable, even over the most awkward body contours. Its extensibility does not restrict movement, ensuring that it is comfortable for the patient. The unique dressing carrier keeps the film firm, allowing easy application.

OpSite Flexifix is a roll of transparent adhesive film, ideal for use in dressing fixation, tube fixation, dressing reinforcement and the treatment of painful peripheral neuropathy. It combines all the advantages of OpSite film with a unique application system, to allow easy and secure fixation of all kinds of dressings. OpSite's strong, flexible film also offers protection against skin breakdown due to friction and moisture.

• The film is waterproof and a barrier to bacteria. Its high moisture vapour permeability allows the skin to breathe. The acrylic adhesive minimises the risk of skin damage on removal, especially after long periods of wear.
• OpSite Flexifix has been designed to allow easy application of the film to awkward areas of the body and over dressings and tubes. The film is highly conformable and extensible to increase patient comfort.
• The unique and novel roll format enables rapid and economical use of the OpSite film to create comfortable, waterproof fixation for dressings.

• Retention of primary dressings eg, Melolin Non-adherent Dressings or Allevyn Hydrocellular Hydrophilic Polyurethane Wound Dressing
• Fixation of tubing
• Treatment of painful peripheral neuropathy
• Skin protection under leg bags, stoma devices
• Reduction of shearing forces on unbroken skin, e.g. in pressure sore prophylaxis

A hydrocolloid pad bordered by a thin film helps keep blisters from drying out, absorbs perspiration and helps promote a scab-free, naturally healed blister.

• Hydrocolloid pad bordered by a thin film: Keeps blisters from drying out, absorbs perspiration and prevents scabbing.
• Sterile: Helps prohibit bacteria from forming.
