3M Blenderm Surgical Tape

More Information

• Usage Tips:
  - Tape should be applied without tension to clean, dry skin
  - A clipper may be used to remove hair, if necessary
  - To protect at-risk skin, 3M Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film may be applied and when thoroughly dry, tape may be applied over it
  - In general, do not encircle a limb completely with tape
  - If distention is anticipated, use a tape that stretches or a self-adherent wrap to secure the dressing or tubing
• Tape Application Instructions:
  General Taping:
  - Apply the tape without tension, gently but firmly stroking the surface to maximize adhesion
  - Tape should extend at least one-half inch beyond the dressing
  - Tape should not be pulled or stretched when applied
  - If swelling does occur, loosen and re-fasten or replace tape to relieve the tension
  When Compression is Needed:
  - Place first section of tape without tension onto skin on one side of the dressing, gently pressing downward
  - With one hand, secure tape on one edge of the dressing while slightly stretching next section of tape over the dressing
  - Secure tape on opposite edge of the dressing
  - Press remaining tape onto skin without tension
  - Compression should come from the multiple layers of dressing material, not from excessive tension in the tape
  - Skin distention under tape may result in blistering and should be relieved as soon as possible
• Tape Removal Instructions:
  - Loosen edges of tape
  - If necessary, press a small piece of tape onto a corner to start an edge of the tape
  - Stabilize the skin with one finger
  - Remove tape "low and slow" in direction of hair growth, keeping it close to skin surface and pulled back over itself
  - Removing tape at an angle will pull at the epidermis increasing risk of mechanical trauma
  - As tape is removed, continue supporting newly exposed skin
