Shower Shield 9" x 9" SS99 PICC Line Cover Moisture Barrier - 2 Week Supply (Pack of 14) - Waterproof Wound Cover, PICC Line Shower Cover

Good cover but need to use extra waterproof tape around side to ensure no water leaks through.

I purchased these because I am wearing a Zio Patch heart monitor for two weeks. In the directions for the monitor they warn you against getting it wet. The patch is adhered to your chest and is about 2" x 5". They tell you that you can shower but to keep your back to the water. All I can say is good luck with that! There is no way to rinse your neck or armpits without some water running down your chest. So I looked into some way to cover it up while showering and found these on Amazon. I got the 9 x 9 inch ones but somewhat smaller would have also worked. I had to shave my chest and wipe it with rubbing alcohol to apply the Zio Patch, so I did the same for the Shower Shields. I also put a strip of medical type tape across the top of the shield to insure that no water runs under the top edge. It works great; I've taken several showers since I got these and no water has gotten under them to ruin the Zio Patch yet. My only complaint is that there is a bit of pain when I remove the shield after showering - they stick that well! I recommend shaving the area where the adhesive is on the shield; I'm pretty sure water would leak through around the hair and the hair would be pulled out anyway when you pull the shield off!

Todo OK

Make sure you clean area to be applied with alcohol, let dry, then clean with alcohol a second time. Once dried for second time, then cover. Will last and seal for average shower.If you only clean area with alcohol once, or don't let dry, bandage WILL fall off.

They do NOT stick so water got to the Hickman line
