Waterproof PICC Line Cover
by Dry Pro - Reusable
INTRODUCTION:
If you have PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) you know the area
around where the PICC is inserted is prone to infection. You will find that
using the Dry Pro PICC line cover when showering or swimming
helps to keep bacteria and other contaminates away from
the vein the PICC is inserted in. With a Dry Pro PICC line cover,
you can keep the area around the vein completely dry whether you are in the
shower or the ocean.
The Dry Pro offers excellent PICC line protection and is made from
waterproof fabric. The Dry Pro is
completely watertight keeping your
PICC line dry. The Dry Pro offers the only
PICC line protection in the world with the patented
vacuum seal to keep your PICC line dry. It is so completely and
totally waterproof between the waterproof material and the vacuum seal, that you
can even dive off a diving board or ride the ocean
waves and still have your PICC line stay completely dry. The Dry Pro
PICC line cover fits snugly yet comfortably offering protection during a shower,
a bath, and even an active swim. Unlike
modified garbage bag products, the PICC line protection offered by the Dry Pro
protector is unmatched - it cannot slip off.
You can't even pull it off! The Dry Pro PICC Line Cover is made of durable high
quality surgical latex. Jump in the pool!
Play in the waves at the beach!
Shower or bathe
repeatedly with ease!

What if the Dry Pro feels too tight or
is difficult to stretch on?
The Dry Pro is made of stretchy latex rubber and will stretch over the PICC
line. If you find that it is too hard to stretch on or too tight after it is
on, you can widen the opening. First try it on the good limb to see how it
feels. If it feels too tight by the opening you can trim a quarter of an inch
straight across the top. Be careful not to cut all the way down to the valve
area so that the opening becomes larger than the limb.
What if the Dry Pro Opening is too
large?
If the Dry Pro opening is bigger than the limb, than you have the wrong size
and you need to e-mail us so we can send you the right product.
What makes the Dry Pro unique?
The Dry Pro is the only truly waterproof protector
in the world. The flexible latex is natural and very comfortable.
Is the Dry Pro durable?
The Dry Pro is extremely durable. The
product can be used over and over again
and will last years even with daily use. It is made of strong surgical latex
and can stretch up to 1000 percent of its original
size.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WEARING
ALL DRY PRO WATERPROOF COVERS:
- Slide on the Dry Pro
- Try the Dry Pro on your good limb first. Only if the Dry Pro feels too
tight you may trim the top slightly to increase the opening size. Do this
little by little until the opening is comfortable, but still smaller then the
limb. Now, stretch on the Dry Pro waterproof cover so that it completely
covers the cast or bandage plus an additional inch. The top should be smooth
against the skin. Be careful of sharp objects. A fingernail, sharp
fiberglass threads on a cast, can rip the cover (Putting a soft ace bandage
or a tube sock with the toe cut out over the fiberglass cast will help reduce
sharp fiberglass threads from cutting into the Dry Pro waterproof bandage
cover).
- Pump out the air
- continue to press the bulb until it remains flat and Dry Pro waterproof
clothing is completely wrinkled. Remove the pump and push on the safety cap.
Observe the Dry Pro waterproof cast and bandage cover for a few minutes
before going in the water. As long as the Dry Pro waterproof clothing stays
collapsed and wrinkled, the vacuum is intact and the Dry Pro bandage protector
cannot leak or come off.
- Slide off
- When you are done using the Dry Pro waterproof clothing, simply lift up the
cuff to let the air back in. The Dry Pro waterproof bandage cover should now
be loose. Simply slide it back off.
- Note - Do not
leave on for extended periods of time. We recommend removing it after every
45 minutes of use. Do not use in vascular compromised patients. Steady
yourself in wet slippery areas. The Dry Pro cast and bandage protector
contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions. Always
follow your doctor's advice.
DR. GREEN'S COMMENTS:
"This is the best water protection device I
have ever tested, and it’s reusable!
It works so well, you can even swim
with it. Convenience is
important to my patients and this product provides just that. Many people try
to cover their arm with a plastic bag and seal the top portion of the bag around
their arm using duct tape. Usually, they step out of the shower with a bag full
of water! What about the pool and the
beach? People with PICC lines usually just
avoid swimming and miss out on sharing the fun with
family and friends. With the Waterproof PICC line cover, you can now
enjoy these activities! "
