Medical Disposables For Home And Long Term Care
In home and long term care the device is worn for weeks rather than hours, and it is handled by a carer rather than a clinician. That changes the specification: comfort, discretion and tolerance matter more than peak performance.
Pain Points In This Segment
- Bedside drainage bags that confine a mobile patient to the bed
- Nasal prongs that irritate the nares during long term oxygen therapy
- Skin breakdown going unnoticed under an opaque external catheter
- Catheter associated infection from unnecessary indwelling catheters
What Buyers Need Instead
- Leg-worn drainage for ambulant patients
- Soft prong and over-the-ear cannula fits for continuous wear
- Transparent external catheters so carers can check the skin
- All silicone catheters suited to long term placement
