In modern healthcare, managing vascular access is a critical component of effective treatment. Whether delivering fluids, medications, or nutrition, maintaining a clean and secure access site is essential to avoid complications. This is where advanced vascular access technologies become vital to protecting patients, streamlining care, and improving outcomes.
Covalon Technologies offers innovative solutions like CovaClear® IV, IV Clear®, and VALGuard®, designed to enhance safety while supporting gentle care practices.
Vascular access devices, such as IV lines or central venous catheters, are used daily across hospitals and clinics worldwide. However, these devices can increase the risk of infections, skin damage, or patient discomfort when not managed properly. Traditional dressings may cause adhesive-related trauma or require frequent changes, especially in patients with delicate skin.
That is why healthcare professionals turn to vascular access solutions that offer protection without compromising comfort. The goal is to reduce infection risks while making care less invasive and more efficient.
CovaClear® IV and IV Clear® are transparent silicone dressings that redefine patient care at the access site. These products provide a secure seal while respecting the integrity of the patient’s skin.
Key Features:
1.Full Transparency
These dressings offer clear visibility of the catheter site, helping clinicians monitor for early signs of infection or complications without removing the dressing.
2. Skin-Friendly Silicone
Both products use soft silicone material that gently bonds with the skin’s natural contours. This reduces trauma during dressing removal, making them ideal for patients with fragile or sensitive skin.
3.Consistent Antimicrobial Protection
IV Clear® features a uniform layer of chlorhexidine and silver across its entire surface. This even distribution ensures continuous protection from microbes, unlike some dressings that concentrate antimicrobial agents in only one area.
4.Reduced Need for Frequent Changes
Thanks to their secure yet gentle adhesion, these dressings can remain in place longer. Fewer dressing changes support better infection control while enhancing patient comfort.
While the insertion site is protected by dressings, external components like hubs and connectors also require attention. VALGuard® provides a transparent barrier that shields IV-line junctions from environmental exposure.
Why Choose VALGuard®:
Visual Monitoring
The see-through design allows clinicians to inspect lines and components without removing the barrier.
Fast Access
VALGuard® includes quick-release features, allowing medical staff to access IV lines easily when time matters most.
External Contamination Control
This product acts as a physical barrier between the patient environment and IV connectors, helping reduce contamination risks during daily care.
From critical care to outpatient treatment, vascular access products play an essential role in maintaining patient safety. Covalon’s innovations help reduce infection rates, protect skin health, and make treatment experiences more comfortable for patients of all ages.
Clinicians benefit from simplified monitoring, efficient dressing changes, and reduced use of adhesive removers. These improvements lead to better workflow and safer patient outcomes across global healthcare systems.
Covalon vascular access solutions are setting new standards for infection prevention and patient-centered care. Products like CovaClear® IV, IV Clear®, and VALGuard® deliver clear visibility, antimicrobial defense, and skin-friendly design in every application. By focusing on comfort and safety, these technologies help healthcare providers support patients more effectively at every stage of treatment.
