Features of Grip-Lok Securement Device
- Safe: Grip-Lok is latex-free and is packaged in individual sterile units, allowing the user to use the Grip-Lok close to the wound site or right in the sterile field. The medical-grade hypoallergenic tape prevents rashes and other skin irritations.
- Simple: Grip-Lok is applied in the same simple manner as a bandage and can be easily placed and adjusted by gloved hands.
- Secure: Grip-Lok employs specialized adhesives and a self-gripping fastener to keep lines, tubes, and catheters locked securely in place. Once secured, Grip-Lok prevents dislodgement and/or migration, thus reducing the risk of lost lines, duplication of work, and patient discomfort or distress.
- Standardized: Grip-Lok conforms to the new Infusion Nursing Standards of Practice and can eliminate the need for sutures and unscheduled catheter restarts, thus directly reducing needle-stick injuries.
