Skin Tears, Tape Allergies, etc. by Progressive Doctors, LLC
100% biodegradable product wraps around the forearm of any grateful patient and creates a 4" wide breathing "platform" around the proximal part of the wrist.
After securing the platform, the I.V. line(s) can be stabilized by applying tape over the line adhering it to the platform - without any concern of damaging the epidermis and/or experiencing the well known painful side effects of applying tape directly to a patients fragile or sensitive skin.
The I.V. Safety Cuff should be used on every single patient, every single time an I.V. is placed on the arm or hand.
The I.V. Safety Cuff is easy to use and its benefits: Value, Appreciation and Kindness are priceless.

A. Position narrow end of I.V. Safety Cuff
towards the wrist.
B. Secure tongue-in-grove (allow enough room
for the pinky finger to fit between the
I.V. Safety Cuff and skin) and/or secure
with tape of choice.
Because of its trapezoid shape, the
I.V. Safety Cuff fits fairly snugly on the distal forearm area and will stay in place.
C. Slide Cuff as close to the hand as possible to mimic how far the cuff could move before securing an I.V. Line.
Secure the I.V. Line "safety-release-loop" to the I.V. Safety Cuff platform instead of bare skin.
The wider area may be used when the I.V. is placed in the elbow or forearm region.
D. This alternative view demonstrates that the narrow portion of the I.V. Safety Cuff may used as a platform also, usually when the I.V. is placed in the dorsum (back-side) of the hand.
