The new dressings, called ReliaTect™, incorporate BeneHold™ CHG,
an innovative adhesive technology from Vancive Medical
Technologies, that comfortably secures the dressing to the skin,
absorbs fluids and protects the site from external contaminants.
The CHG contained within the adhesive preserves the dressings from
microbial growth, making them ideally suited for post-operative
sites. Eloquest Healthcare is the exclusive distributor of the
dressings in the United States and Canada.
“The unique characteristics of the ReliaTect post-operative
dressings make them a great complement to our growing portfolio and
increases the value we are able to provide to our customers,” said
Tim O’Halla, President and CEO for Eloquest Healthcare. “The
BeneHold CHG adhesive technology delivers the combination of fluid
management and sustained transparency with antimicrobial effect of
chlorhexidine gluconate, offering clinicians a simple and
innovative solution for post-op site management.”
The ReliaTect dressings will be available in two sizes (small
and large) and designed to be ideal for various post-operative
sites.
“BeneHold CHG adhesive technology adds value to post-operative
dressings,” said Kirsten Newquist, general manager for Vancive
Medical Technologies. “The collaboration with Eloquest Healthcare
brings together complementary resources, experience and expertise
from each company. We look forward to working with Eloquest
Healthcare to bring ReliaTect to market.”
Eloquest Healthcare and Vancive Medical Technologies will
showcase the new Eloquest Healthcare ReliaTect dressings in booth
