| Designed specially for use with pediatric & neonatal patients with fragile skin, the Grip-Lok H™ hydrocolloid securement device works universally with a large variety of lines and tubes. It is designed to hold patient lines in place, prevent unnecessary pulls and improve patient care – while reducing hospital costs.
Grip-Lok H™ is applied to the patients body wherever a tube or line is to be secured. It is a Gentle, Safe, Simple, and Secure method of keeping valuable lines, tubes, and catheters locked in place.
|
Gentle:
Grip-Lok H™ utilizes a hydrocolloid adhesive that is designed to be gentle on the skin of pediatric and neonatal patients with sensitive skin.
This is extremely important with newborns. Because of the immaturity of the skin, newborns are at higher risk for injury and epidermal stripping from adhesive removal. Epidermal stripping can lead to infection, which then leads to longer hospital stays.
As per the NANN (National Association of Neonatal Nurses) Skin Care Guidelines, “a pectin-based adhesive such as hydrocolloid is the preferred adhesive for immature skin.”
Safe:
Grip-Lok H™ is latex free and packaged sterile, allowing you to use Grip-Lok H™ close to the insertion site or right in the sterile field.
Simple:
Grip-Lok H™ is applied in the same simple manner as a bandage and can be easily placed and adjusted by gloved hands.
Secure:
Grip-Lok H™ employs specialized adhesives and a selfgripping fastener to keep lines, tubes and catheters locked securely in place.
