Tubipad
Click to zoom
Tubipad is available as limb and sacral bandages. Tubipads are used for the prevention and treatment of pressure and friction sores on heels, elbows, knees and the sacral region in patients with restricted mobility.
Tubipads are manufactured from a layer of polyurethane foam bonded to a length of Tubigrip. The soft inner layer minimises pressure and friction on the skin, while the outer Tubigrip layer holds the Tubipad securely and comfortably in position. Both layers allow air to circulate, avoiding maceration.
The tubular construction ensures that Tubipad is easy to apply and remove.
Tubipad sacral bandages feature touch and close fasteners to make application and removal easier for both nurse and patient. Tubipad limb bandages are available in 4m economy rolls and 60cm UK Drug Tariff packs.
