Medical dressing covering system and method of using the same. An exemplary dressing system comprises a primary dressing configured to adhere to a patient and to cover a location on the patient thereby inhibiting said location from being contaminated, said primary dressing defining an outer perimeter edge; a cover dressing having a central section and a peripheral section, said central section of said cover dressing being transparent wherein said primary dressing is visible when viewed through said central section; and a cover adhesive positioned on a lower surface of said peripheral section wherein said lower surface of said peripheral section is configured to adhere to the patient around said outer perimeter edge of said primary dressing whereby said cover dressing extends over and covers said primary dressing such that said cover dressing prevents contamination of said primary dressing.

Medical dressing covering system and method of using the same

A dual dressing catheter site covering system prevents contamination of a wound site and inadvertent removal of a dressing from the catheter site. The system includes a primary dressing configured to cover a catheter site thereby inhibiting the catheter site from being contaminated. The primary dressing has an outer perimeter edge. A cover adhesive is positioned on a lower surface of a peripheral section of a cover dressing wherein the lower surface of the peripheral section adheres to the patient around the outer perimeter edge of the primary dressing. A central section of the cover dressing extends over and covers the primary dressing such that the cover dressing prevents contamination of the primary dressing.

Dual dressing catheter site covering system

A catheter dressing system for providing enhanced isolation and protection of a catheter site from potential contamination during a surgical procedure includes a dressing adhered to a patient covering a catheter. The dressing has a top layer removably covering a base layer. The base layer adheres to the catheter and the patient. The top layer is fluid impermeable. A surgical drape adhesively engages the top layer more strongly than the top layer is engaged to the base layer wherein removal of the surgical drape separates the top layer from the base layer when the surgical drape is removed leaving the base layer uncontaminated and in place covering the catheter after removal of the surgical drape.

Catheter dressing system

A catheter dressing system includes a catheter that may be inserted into a patient when the patient is undergoing a surgical procedure. A dressing is provided and the dressing is selectively adhered to the patient. The dressing covers the catheter thereby inhibiting the catheter from being contaminated and the dressing gas a tear-away portion. A surgical drape is positioned on the patient when the patient is undergoing the surgical procedure. The surgical drape adhesively engages the tear-away portion of the dressing. The tear away portion is removed from the dressing when the surgical drape is removed from the patient such that the dressing remains on the catheter.
