Product Overview: Medicare Canfix Cannula Fixator: Cannula Fixator with Elastic Adhesive Bandage is a reliable medical device designed to securely stabilize intravenous (IV) cannulas and catheters. Made from soft, skin-friendly, and hypoallergenic materials, it ensures firm fixation while minimizing discomfort and irritation for patients. The elastic adhesive bandage allows air and humidity to pass freely, ensuring skin breathability, and features a non-allergenic adhesive with a paper liner for easy and painless removal. The included extra strip provides additional security for enhanced stability. Lightweight, flexible, and easy to apply, this cannula fixator is ideal for hospitals, clinics, and home care settings, ensuring safe and effective IV therapy even during patient movement

Key Features and Design:

Elastic Adhesive Base: The bandage material is stretchable, ensuring that it conforms to body contours (like the wrist or hand) without restricting blood flow or causing discomfort.
Integrated Pad: Features a non-adherent central pad that sits directly over the puncture site. This absorbs minor exudate and prevents the adhesive from sticking to the cannula insertion point.
V-Cut / U-Cut Design: Most Canfix models include a specific slit or cutout designed to fit snugly around the cannula hub, preventing the device from shifting or "toggling" within the vein.
Skin-Friendly Adhesive: Uses a hypoallergenic medical-grade adhesive to minimize the risk of skin irritation or "medical adhesive-related skin injury" (MARSI), even during prolonged wear.

Ease of Application: The pre-cut shape allows healthcare professionals to secure a cannula quickly, even in emergencies.
Protection: Acts as a barrier against external contaminants, lowering the risk of infusion-site infections.

Standard Usage Instructions:

Preparation: Clean and dry the skin around the insertion site thoroughly.
Placement: Peel off the release paper. Center the non-adherent pad over the cannula insertion point.
Securing: Align the V-cut around the cannula hub. Press the adhesive edges firmly onto the skin from the center outward.
Monitoring: Regularly check the site for signs of phlebitis or displacement.

Note: This product is intended for professional medical use. Ensure the skin is free of oils or lotions before application to maintain maximum adhesion.

Safety Information:

Ensure the application site is clean and dry before applying adhesive.
Monitor the skin regularly for signs of irritation or allergic reaction.
Change the fixator immediately if it becomes wet, loose, or soiled.
Apply the elastic bandage with gentle tension to avoid restricting circulation.
