Hypafix Transparent

Hypafix® Transparent is a clear, waterproof wide-area fixation tape to reliably secure and protect wound pads and ointment dressings as well as instruments, probes, catheters and measuring devices. It consists of a thin breathable polyurethane film coated with a skin-friendly adhesive that reliably protects against water, bacteria and contaminants, while still providing breathability and a high moisture vapor transmission rate. The extra thin, semi-permeable film is both waterproof and bacteria proof, protecting the patient's primary wound dressing while remaining pliable and stretchable, conforming to body contours like a second skin. The unique application technique with the distinctive red stripe allows easy and quick application. Hypafix® Transparent can be worn in the bath or shower with no additional protection or change of dressings.
