Smith&Nephew IV3000

The unique REACTIC film used to make IV3000 has a patented molecular structure which is significantly more permeable to water vapour than ordinary films. This prevents the accumulation of moisture underneath the dressing, reducing bacterial growth and the risk of catheter-related infection.

IV3000 offers a moisture vapour transmission rate over FIVE TIMES that of its nearest competitor, helping to keep moisture levels under the dressing to a minimum.
