Skin Prep Protective Wipe by Smith and Nephew is a dressing that forms a liquid film over the wound. It reduces friction when films are tapes are removed from the skin. It also helps prepare attachment sites for external catheters, adhesive dressings, drainage tubes, and Ostomy sites.
The wipes are for one-time use only and used to prep the area in one coat. All you need is soapy water or a skin cleanser to loosen the wipe. This prevents any unsanitary residue from being left behind. The wipes move naturally and prevent patient discomfort by preventing the skin from peeling or cracking.
