Medipore Tape - Suggested applications

 

  • When repeated taping is needed Securing over areas where skin may stretch (e.g., edema, distention, hematoma formation or movement)
  • Securing dressings and ostomy pouches to fragile skin
  • Anchoring post-surgical dressing

3M Medipore Tape Application Instructions:

 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape
  • Unroll slightly beyond the desired length.
  • Slightly bend the rolled-out segment of tape to identify the perforation lines which are spaced every 2 inches along the entire roll
 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape
  • Grasp the top edge of the tape closest to the perforation line, and quickly “tear” the tape apart.
 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape
  • Hold the tabbed end as you peel one dressing cover from the pad.
 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape
  • Lay the dressing cover over the gauze or area you are covering.
 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape
  • Remove the paper tab and secure tape by rubbing or pressing into place.

When compression is needed:

  • Place first section of tape without tension onto skin on one side of the dressing, gently pressing downward.
  • With one hand, secure tape on one edge of the dressing while slightly stretching next section of tape over the dressing.
  • Secure tape on opposite edge of the dressing.
  • Press remaining tape onto skin without tension. Compression should come from the multiple layers of dressing material, not from excessive tension in the tape. Skin distention under tape may result in blistering and should be relieved as soon as possible
Medipore_application
  • General taping: Apply the tape without tension, gently but firmly stroking the surface to maximize adhesion. Tape should extend at least one-half inch beyond the dressing. Tape should not be pulled or stretched when applied. If swelling does occur, loosen and re-fasten or replace tape to relieve the tension.

    This tape has been an excellent to use. It does not tear the skin and never pulls the skin when the tape is removed. My husband has a surgically made open wound for 7 years now. With out this Medipore tape his skin would be raw and bleeding.Skin becomes very sensitive with the use of tape over many years and yet Medipore H. has made a big difference and the skin although very sensitive remains healthy.

  1. Question: How can I get tape to let go of my gloves?

    Asked by Jionat on Mar 3, 2017
    • Answer: We tend to hold the 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape tightly, especially when tearing it off the roll and when gauging where we plan to put the tape. Because the tapes have pressure sensitive adhesives, when we hold them tightly, they stick even more to the gloves. Since the adhesives were designed to easily detach from gloves, try holding the tape a little less tightly, and it will usually “let go”.

  2. Question: What if I used a
    moisturizer (cream) or an adhesive remover and need to tape over the same
    area?

    Asked by Sara L. on Sep 24, 2015
    • Answer: Reassess the skin. If you wish to retape over an area where you used adhesive
      remover or moisturizer, you will either need to remove the moisturizer or adhesive
      remover or use a moisturizer that allows you to tape over it. Some moisturizers
      (creams) that allow you to retape may actually increase adhesion of some tapes on
      some people, so it is important to use good technique for subsequent tape removal.

  3. Question: How can I increase
    tape adhesion?

    Asked by Dale on Sep 24, 2015
    • Answer: To maximize the adhesion of 3M Medipore H Soft Cloth Surgical Tape follow below given steps:• Start with clean, dry skin
      • Touch the sticky surface of the tape as little as possible
      • Apply sufficient pressure to the tape to get the adhesive into the nooks and
      crannies of the skin
      • Cover adequate surface area so that the tape can support the tubing or
      dressing
      • Obtain full contact between the tape and the skin or tubing so that moisture
      cannot slip between the two and loosen the tape

      Most adhesives stick best to clean, dry surfaces so try to minimize moist
      conditions as much as possible.
      • Remove substances that contain emollients or oils, such as most moisturizers
      and adhesive tape removers.
      • If the skin is very oily, use a mild soap and water to remove the excess oil and
      pat dry. An alcohol wipe may also be used to remove the excess oil, but since
      it is very drying, it should be used with care
      • To protect at-risk skin, 3M Cavilon No Sting Barrier Film may be used
      under the tape.
      • If you are using a prep solution, let it dry completely before applying the tape.

  4. Question: What is the best way to remove tape?

    Asked by Nancy on Sep 24, 2015
    • Answer: Proper Medipore Surgical Tape removal is critical in reducing the occurrence of traumatic skin injuries such as skin stripping. First, loosen the edges of the tape. You may "start" at any edge of the tape by pressing a small piece of tape onto the corner, like a pop tab, and lifting. Stabilize the skin with one finger. Remove the tape "low and slow" in the direction of hair growth.
      Keep the tape close to the skin surface and pulled back over itself. Removing tape at an angle will increase tension on the epidermis and increase the risk of mechanical trauma. As the tape is removed, continue to support the newly exposed skin. Support close to the "peel edge" is particularly important for thin or easily distensible skin.
