IV Film Dressing Built for IV catheter site care and securement
The transparent IV film dressing is built for IV catheter site care and securement, and the design centers on the details that decide how the work feels at the bedside and in the treatment room. With sizes from 4" x 3 1/8" to 2¾" x 2" on one product page, the team picks the configuration by item number instead of substituting whatever is on the shelf. It is sold as 20/pkg, 10 pkg/cs as the manufacturer lists it, and the price applies to that full package. The transparent IV film dressing is stocked under its manufacturer item numbers, so the specification verified once is the specification that arrives on every reorder. That consistency is what infusion and ward teams feel first: the transparent IV film dressing sets up fast and works as expected.

Why Choose This IV Film Dressing
Departments standardize on the PRIMAPORE IV because the full range sits under one item-number system with published specifications. That makes preference cards and par levels simple to maintain across the range. The result is fewer substitutions and a setup the team already knows when the case starts.
- Trained-In Behavior – Because the transparent IV film dressing is consistent across sizes from 4" x 3 1/8" to 2¾" x 2", new staff learn one setup instead of several.
- Visible Stock Picture – A single listing shows the whole range at once, which makes gaps in the par cart easy to spot and fix.
- Manufacturer-Backed Design – The line is designed and specified by Smith & Nephew for IV catheter site care and securement, so buyers verify real specifications before the item reaches the shelf.
- No Substitute Risk – Ordering by item number across 3 configurations removes the guesswork that leads to wrong-size substitutions.
