## What Is 3M Micropore Surgical Tape?

3M Micropore is a **paper-based pressure-sensitive medical tape** designed for general-purpose securement.

The paper backing allows air and moisture vapour to pass through more readily than many less-breathable tape constructions.

3M positions Micropore as a dependable choice where users need:

-   Gentle skin contact
-   Reliable dressing fixation
-   Breathability
-   Repeated taping
-   Securement on fragile or at-risk skin

* * *

## What Is 3M Micropore Tape Used For?

3M identifies Micropore Surgical Tape for applications including:

-   Securing small-to-medium dressings
-   Securing lightweight tubing
-   Securing ostomy appliances
-   Taping fragile or at-risk skin
-   Applications requiring repeated taping
-   General medical dressing fixation

The appropriate tape and fixation technique should always be selected according to the dressing, device, patient's skin condition and applicable clinical procedure.

* * *

## Highly Breathable Paper Surgical Tape

One of the primary characteristics of 3M Micropore is its **highly breathable paper backing**.

Breathability can be useful where prolonged occlusion of the taped skin is undesirable and where a general-purpose medical tape is needed for routine dressing fixation.

The tape should still be monitored regularly according to the patient's care plan because breathable tape does not eliminate the possibility of skin irritation or moisture-related problems.

* * *

## Gentle on Sensitive, Fragile & At-Risk Skin

3M specifically identifies Micropore for use on **fragile and at-risk skin** and in situations where repeated taping may be required.

This makes Micropore particularly relevant in professional care settings involving:

-   Elderly patients
-   Sensitive skin
-   Fragile skin
-   Repeated dressing changes
-   Longer-term dressing fixation where clinically appropriate

Individual skin response varies. Skin condition should be assessed before application and during repeated use.

* * *

## Adheres Well on Damp Skin

3M product literature notes that Micropore **adheres well on damp skin**.

This does not mean the tape should be applied over visibly wet, contaminated or improperly prepared skin.

Always prepare the application area according to the relevant dressing, device or clinical procedure.

* * *

## Hypoallergenic & Latex-Free

3M describes standard Micropore Surgical Tape as:

-   **Hypoallergenic**
-   **Latex-free**

These characteristics can be important when choosing medical adhesive products for patients with sensitive skin.

However, no adhesive product can guarantee that every user will remain free from irritation or allergy. Discontinue use and obtain appropriate advice if a significant skin reaction occurs.

* * *

## How to Apply 3M Micropore Tape

1.  Confirm that Micropore is appropriate for the required dressing or securement application.
2.  Inspect the skin before application.
3.  Prepare the area according to the relevant clinical or first-aid procedure.
4.  Cut or tear the required length of tape.
5.  Apply the tape without excessive stretching or tension.
6.  Smooth gently over the skin and dressing to establish good adhesive contact.
7.  Check the securement and skin periodically.

**Do not apply excessive tape tension.** Excessive tension can increase mechanical stress on the skin and may contribute to skin injury.

* * *

## How to Remove Micropore Tape

Medical adhesive tape should be removed carefully, particularly from fragile or sensitive skin.

Where appropriate:

-   Support the skin while removing the tape
-   Peel gradually rather than pulling sharply upward
-   Remove in the direction that places the least stress on the skin
-   Follow the dressing or healthcare professional's instructions

If the tape is being used repeatedly on fragile skin, regular skin assessment is especially important.

* * *
