Invasive Medical Devices Require Dressings

Invasive medical devices like intravenous catheters and tracheostomy tubes require dressings to protect open wounds. Specially designed dressings are placed at a tracheostomy or IV site to cover the stoma or open wound because they absorb secretions better than cotton gauze. These types of dressings have a cut-out location that conforms well around IV catheters, drains, or other chest tubes. Dressings should be changed regularly to be most effective. Using these dressings can minimize the risk of infections or wound contamination.
