- A medical-grade elastic adhesive tape (also known as stretch tape) designed to provide flexible support and secure medical devices in place
Uses
- Securing Medical Devices:
- Primarily used to hold dressings, bandages, I.V. sites, and tubing securely to the skin
- Joint and Muscle Support:
- Provides light compression and support for minor strains or injuries, frequently used in sports medicine for wrapping joints
- Conforming to Contours:
- Ideal for difficult-to-tape areas, such as joints (knees, elbows) or fingers, where the body's movement would cause standard tape to peel
Features
- Dimensions:
- Standard roll size of 1 inch wide by 5 yards long
- Elastic Properties:
- Features a stretchable fabric that conforms to body movement, reducing the risk of skin tension or restriction
- Adhesive Quality:
- Built with a strong but gentle adhesive designed to maintain a secure grip while minimizing skin irritation
- Latex-Free:
- Safe for use on individuals with natural rubber latex sensitivities or allergies
- Porous Material:
- The fabric is breathable, allowing air to circulate and moisture to escape, which supports skin health during wear
Benefits
- Enhanced Mobility:
- Unlike rigid tapes, the elastic nature of the E150 allows patients to maintain a range of motion without the tape pulling or detaching
- Skin Comfort:
- The combination of a gentle adhesive and breathable fabric reduces the likelihood of skin maceration (softening due to moisture) and irritation
- Ease of Application:
- It is easy to apply and conforms naturally to irregular body shapes, ensuring a snug fit
- Clinical Efficiency:
- Commonly sold in bulk, making it a cost-effective and readily available solution for busy medical facilities
