SKATER™ Fix Catheter Fixation Device
SKATER™ Fix is a latex free catheter fixation device. This consists of a central thin carrier which has hydrocolloid adhesive and is covered with non woven medical grade adhesive. The soft foam support block and velcro prevent the catheter from kinking.
The catheter will be mechanically fixed with velcro and minimal tape is involved directly on the catheter. The velcro cover can be opened for puncture site inspection. In this way you have the possibility to look for infection or leakage whenever required.
