A BioPatch Antimicrobial CHG Chlorhexidine Gluconate Disk Dressing is a sterile, disc-shaped wound dressing made with a special fabric that contains chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG). CHG is an antiseptic and antimicrobial agent that is clinically proven to reduce the risk of infection in wounds. The BioPatch allows for sustained release of CHG, providing extended protection against harmful bacteria and other microbes. It is commonly used in surgical and medical settings to help prevent infections in surgical wounds, catheter insertion sites, and other wounds.

BIOPATCH™ containing Chlorhexidine Gluconate is intended for use as a hydrophilic wound dressing that is used to absorb exudate and to cover a wound caused by the use of vascular and non-vascular percutaneous medical devices such as: IV catheters, central venous lines, arterial catheters, dialysis catheters, peripherally inserted coronary catheters, mid-line catheters, drains, chest tubes, externally placed orthopedic pins, and epidural catheters. It is also intended to reduce local infections, catheter-related blood stream infections (CRBSI), and skin colonization of microorganisms commonly related to CRBSI, in patients with central venous or arterial catheters.

BioPatch Antimicrobial Catheter Dressing Disks are designed to prevent infection in patients with central venous and arterial catheters. Each antimicrobial disk is impregnated with CHG (chlorhexidine gluconate), an antiseptic agent that will keep your patient protected for up to 7 days. BioPatch disks reduce bacterial levels on patients, eliminate the need for frequent dressing changes, and have the unique ability to absorb 8 times their own weight in fluids.

Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are a challenge for any hospital. Not only do they increase patient morbidity and mortality rates from 12 to 25%, but they also increase hospital stays and cost your facility valuable dollars. BioPatch technology works to eliminate that. These antimicrobial catheter dressings provide week-long protection to each patient, thereby saving you time and money used in frequent dressing changes and patient care. Each disk’s time-released solution is activated by the presence of moisture on the skin, and has been proven effective in the presence of organic matter including blood, sera and proteins. Ensure your patients' safety from infections with BioPatch Antimicrobial catheter dressings.
