Invisible shield protects skin and relieves dryness

Nutrashield provides an effective, long-lasting moisture barrier against incontinent episodes while relieving dryness, abrasion or denuded skin. An advanced silicone system allows Nutrashield to last up to five washings, yet it remains semi-permeable and non-occlusive. This versatility is unique to silicones and not obtained by petrolatum-based barriers.

Protects against moisture loss

Nutrashield protects against e-TEWL by sealing in the moisture and creating a more favorable environment for healthy skin. Ideal for patients with very dry skin.

CHG and latex-friendly

Like Remedy Skin Repair Cream, Nutrashield is CHG and latex-friendly.

Safer in oxygen-rich environments

Comparative tests against petrolatum-based products show that Remedy products are significantly less prone to ignite in high oxygen environments.

Uses

Temporarily protects and helps relieve chapped or cracked skin.

At last there's a REMEDY!

To understand Our Remedy Advanced Skin Care System is to understand the skin itself. First and foremost, the skin is an organ, and like any other organ of the human body it requires its fair share of care. While most equate this attention with cleansing, moisturizing, protecting and treating, by doing so they do not see the greater picture. These are merely physical actions and do not take product selection into consideration. Complete topical skin care does not end until the product meets the skin.

How Is Remedy with Olivamine Different?

Remedy is the gentle solution for most skin needs. By avoiding the use of harsh soaps and detergents, and only using naturally-derived phospholipids to lift the dirt and oils from the skin, Remedy ensures that the structure and integrity of the already compromised skin is not damaged any further. Moreover, the Remedy line is proven to be pH balanced, non-cytotoxic, non-sensitizing, non-irritating and non-allergenic.

Remedy skin protectants contain silicones to help prevent excessive transepidermal water loss (e-TEWL), yet will not occlude the skins natural breathability. In addition to these silicones, Remedy also uses ingredients such as zinc oxide to help protect the skin from moisture, incontinence, perspiration or wound exudate.

Remedy nourishes the skin with a unique blend of Olivamine, natural oils and emollients. This step does not require additional effort because every Remedy product provides nourishment along with its primary application.

Comparative Study of Medline Nutrashield For Wash-off Resistance

Background: Before the introduction of silicones, most moisture barriers consisted predominately of petrolatum and were occlusive. Occlusive products suppress barrier recovery and reduce the epidermal proliferative response to an abnormal stratum corneum barrier.

Objectives

To determine the wash-off resistance rates of Nutrashield, a semi-occlusive moisture barrier consisting of silicone blends.
To determine the moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR) of the specific barrier, proving it prevents e-TEWL.

Results

Medline Nutrashield outperformed all other products tested by surviving five wash cycles over a period of 3 hours.
Nutrashield greatly reduces moisture vapor loss by 65% as compared to the control.
