3M™ Ioban™ 2 Antimicrobial Incise Drape - 6650

Highlights

• Designed with continuous broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity in the drape adhesive where it can't be washed away
• Clinically shown to help reduce the risk of wound contamination and immobilize bacteria on the skin1,2
• Complies with NICE guidance on the use of incise drapes. Ioban is an iodophor impregnated drape with clinical evidence to support its performance
• High moisture-vapour transmission rate (MVTR) for breathability ensuring adhesion throughout the procedure
• Low memory stretch allows limb mobilisation or heavy retraction with reduced tension to the skin
