As hospitals and patients struggle to reduce hospital acquired infections (HAI’s) and infections at home, one company has introduced an innovative product called LiquaShield to address this need. MedCort Inc. is a design and manufacturing company specializing in innovative products for the healthcare and consumer market. MedCort’s flagship product LiquaShield provides water resistant protection for showering. Patients that have a PICC line, central line, dialysis catheter, or a port will be able to safely shower without risking infection from waterborne pathogens. The product is a waterproof, latex free clear film with a medical grade adhesive tape around the perimeter that is water resistant when in contact with the skin. Because the adhesive tape is on the outside perimeter of the film, it will not compromise or adhere to the catheter, PICC line or primary dressing. Patients or nurses can apply the product in less than a minute; enjoying the freedom and comfort in the ability to shower safely, with reduced risk of infection.

 

MedCort is pleased to announce that it has partnered with Innovative Medical , Inc. to bring LiquaShield into the Caribbean, Central American and South American markets where this need is not being met.
