If an area is missed, re apply to that area only after first application of Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film has dried (approximately 30 seconds). George M. Use of a barrier film (3M™ Cavilon™ No Sting Barrier Film) to reduce local skin complications around peripherally inserted central catheter lines: a randomized prospective controlled study.

One study found that 55 treatments for MARSI will be needed for every 100 patients who receive a medical tape application⁶. By using 3M™ Cavilon™ No Sting Barrier Film, you can help protect patient skin from possible adhesive damage.

Skin should be clean and dry prior to application of Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film. Foam applicator or wipe: apply a uniform coating of film over entire area of concern. Spray; Hold nozzle four to six inches from skin and apply a smooth, uniform coating of filmover entire area of concern, while moving spray in a sweeping motion. If an area is missed, re apply to that area only after first application of Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film has dried (approximately 30 seconds). Every time you remove adhesive tape from skin, it takes skin cells with it. This stuff (Cavilon Barrier Film Wipes), which is very easy to use, provides a layer for the tape to take instead of skin. You wipe a wet sponge applicator on the skin, and the fluid dries to a clear plastic coating.incontinence, digestive juices, wound drainage, adhesives, and friction. The film is colorless, transparent, and Cavilon Barrier Spray is a polymeric solution which forms a uniform film when applied to the skin. The product is dispersed in a unique non cytotoxic, non stinging solvent, which dries rapidly. Cavilon Barrier Spray helps protect intact or damaged skin from irritation caused by urine and/ or fecal incontinence, digestive juices, wound drainage, adhesives and friction. The film is colourless, transparent and possesses good oxygen and moisture vapor permeability. Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film helps protect intact or damaged skin from irritation caused by urine and/or fecal incontinence, digestive juices, wound drainage, adhesives and friction.

How often do I need to re-apply Cavilon no sting barrier film? The protective film can last up to 72 hours¹, but re-application is required after each stoma pouch/adhesive dressing change. Proven to provide up to 72 hours of protection from body fluids making it a cost-effective treatment 1Brennan MR, Milne CT, Agrell-Kann M, Ekholm BP. Clinical Evaluation of a Skin Protectant for the Management of Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis: An Open-Label, Nonrandomized, Prospective Study. J Wound Ostomy Continence Nurs. 2017;44(2):172-180. doi:10.1097/WON.0000000000000307 Patient Friendly – Alcohol-free, hypoallergenic formula won't sting or irritate skin -- can be used on intact or damaged skin When should I use it? Cavilon no sting barrier film can be applied to both intact and sore skin, without stinging. Cavilon no sting barrier film will protect ‘good’ skin from potential damage caused by leakage and adhesive trauma. It can also aid the healing of sore or broken skin and protect it from further damage.

Versatile Solution that Guards Skin From the Outside in- solution for many skin problems including, medical adhesive-related skin injury (MARSI), periwound skin damage, peristomal skin damage, incontinence-associated dermatitis and other mositure and friction skin damage prevention needsIssberner K, Schuren J. (2004) A comparative study of the skin protectant performance of five barrier films. 3M Germany

The products unique 3M formulation contains a blend of not one but two polymers, including a Terpolymer and a Homopolymer (plasticiser). The Terpolymer is derived from three distinct monomers, that provides a protective coating on the skin, creating a highly effective barrier. The Homopolymer enhances the films ability to flex with the skin and helps to maintain a continuous, protective coating. Other barrier films contain only one polymer and some utilise alcohol as a solvent. How should I remove Cavilon no sting barrier film? There is no need to remove – it will wear off naturally. If removal is required, the application and immediate removal of an adhesive surgical tape will remove the film. Standard medical adhesive removers may also be used. Cavilon™ No Sting Barrier Film is an alcohol-free moisture barrier. It contains unique ingredients called polymers that form a waterproof, protective coating on the skin. It is breathable and transparent allowing for continuous visualisation and monitoring of skin. It is flexible and conforms to the skin during movement or position changes. If desired, the film can be removed as directed. Clean and dry the involved area and reapply Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film foam applicator. Replace cap over nozzle spray when not in use to prevent accidental dispensing on infected areas of skin.Patients with infected wounds or venous leg ulcers (VLUs) and associated edema are especially at risk for periwound skin damage. The excessive hydration of periwound skin compromises the barrier function, making the epidermis more vulnerable to MARSI, friction and shear. Including 3M™ Cavilon™ No Sting Barrier Film in the wound care process helps protect periwound skin from maceration. These wipes may seem a little pricey, but they're well worth it, to save fragile skin from irritation which can cause pain and possibly lead to skin break-down and even infection. dressings or adhesive products. (b) reapplication of Cavilon No Sting BarrierFilm is necessary each time dressing and/or adhesive products are changed; the Clinically proven to provide up to 72 hours of protection from irritation due to incontinence, reducing product usage Before using any product sample, you must evaluate it and determine if it is suitable for your intended application – seek advice from a medical professional.
