Paul I have been a long supporter of
BathGuard! It is an excellent product, and I even 'trialed' it once when I
had a cast on my arm. I purposefully submerged my arm in a hot tub and it
never leaked. It was wonderful that I could shower and not spend the rest
of the day feeling like I had a wet glove on. The wet glove feeling was
what I got when I tried to make a plastic bag work. I don't see that Saran
wrap would be much better. I have recommended the BathGuard to many
patients and they all LOVE it!!
It is manufactured by MedGuard Tel:
407-875-8022, or medguard.net; I seem to remember being told by the owner
that a patient can even go on-line and order a single unit.
I am glad I was still here to be able
to tell you of this wonderful product!!
Have a great weekend! It is
gorgeous here!!

Subject: PICC protector
Listserve,
I am
looking for a waterproof protector for a patient who has a PICC and wants to
take a shower. I know many people are recommending saran wrap, but I
believe there are a couple of commercial products. Can you provide me
with information about any of these products? Thanks,
Paul
