3M Micropore S Surgical Tape 25mm x 1.37m (2770S-1), Box of 100

The 3M Micropore S Surgical Tape (2770S-1) represents a significant advancement in skin-friendly securement technology. Often referred to as "Kind Removal" tape, it features a gentle, skin-friendly silicone adhesive paired with a breathable paper-blend backing. This 25mm wide tape is specifically engineered to provide reliable fixation for up to 48 hours while virtually eliminating the risk of Medical Adhesive-Related Skin Injury (MARSI). It is the ideal choice for patients with compromised, thin, or at-risk skin, including neonatal and geriatric populations.

One of the standout features of Micropore S is its "constant adhesion" profile. Unlike traditional tapes that increase in stickiness over time—often leading to skin stripping upon removal—the silicone adhesive maintains a consistent, secure bond that removes cleanly and painlessly. The tape is hand-tearable in both directions and can be easily repositioned during application without losing its adhesive properties. This specific format (2770S-1) comes in 1.37-meter lengths, designed as a single-patient-use roll to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination in clinical settings. This bulk bag of 100 rolls is a vital supply for intensive care units, oncology wards, and pediatric departments.

Common Clinical Uses

• Fragile Skin Securement — The gold standard for securing dressings on elderly patients, infants, and those with skin conditions.
• Post-Blood Draw — Provides gentle, reliable securement for gauze following venipuncture.
• Secondary Device Fixation — Ideal for securing IV lines, oxygen tubing, and non-critical tubes where skin protection is paramount.
• Frequent Dressing Changes — Specifically designed for sites that require multiple tape applications and removals per day.

Features

• Silicone Adhesive Technology — Delivers a "kind-to-skin" removal that minimizes pain, hair pulling, and skin cell stripping.
• Repositionable — Can be lifted and adjusted during application without compromising the final securement.
• Single-Patient Format — The short 1.37m length helps minimize waste and reduces the risk of cross-infection between patients.
• Breathable & Hypoallergenic — Promotes skin health by allowing moisture to escape and is safe for those with sensitive skin.
• Clean Hand-Tear — No scissors required; the tape tears neatly for fast, efficient application at the bedside.
