Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis has met its match.
A clear improvement on traditional treatment options, 3M™ Cavilon™ Advanced Skin Protectant is designed to deliver Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis (IAD) protection and prevention — even in the presence of continued incontinence. Cavilon Advanced Skin Protectant creates a highly durable, ultra-thin, transparent barrier that lasts up to seven days and doesn’t require removal, protecting patient skin like never before.
What makes it so revolutionary?
-
Creates a protective environment that supports healing and helps pain associated with IAD.1
-
It offers protection that flexes and stretches to significantly reduce frequency of reapplication.2
-
Attaches to wet, weepy damaged skin surfaces (i.e. superficial partial thickness skin loss).1
-
Allows easy, gentle cleansing with no removal required.
Robert Asmus is driven to create products that solve real-world issues. As lead scientist for 3M™ Cavilon™ Advanced Skin Protectant, he developed this game-changing skin barrier with the power to stop, reverse and prevent Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis (IAD).
