Waterproof Protection
Water-resistant backing protects the puncture sites from water exposure in the critical hours after needle removal — supporting patient hygiene routines.
Waterproof adhesive dressing designed for post-dialysis cannulation site protection. Comfortable on repeated use, stays in place through daily activity, and covers both needle sites with a single application.
A routine hemodialysis session leaves two needle puncture sites in the fistula — one arterial, one venous. Both need covering while the patient travels home and resumes daily activity. Premapore's 10×25cm size is wide enough to cover both sites with a single dressing, and the waterproof backing means patients don't have to delay a shower or worry about contamination on the way home.
The fistula is the patient's lifeline. Protecting it between sessions matters as much as the dialysis itself.
Water-resistant backing protects the puncture sites from water exposure in the critical hours after needle removal — supporting patient hygiene routines.
Dialysis patients use dressings on the same fistula site 2–3 times per week. A skin-friendly adhesive reduces irritation and long-term trauma to the access area.
The 10×25cm size is designed for the A/V configuration of a standard fistula cannulation — a single dressing, fewer steps at the end of the session.

A high-level overview — follow your facility's specific post-cannulation protocol.
Apply gentle pressure to both puncture sites after needle removal until bleeding has stopped. Follow your facility's specific compression protocol and time targets.
Clean the area around the puncture sites gently. The skin should be dry before applying the dressing so the adhesive bonds correctly.
Remove the backing and apply the dressing over both puncture sites, smoothing it down at the edges to ensure good adhesion on all sides.
Most units recommend removal after 4 to 24 hours, or when the puncture sites have closed. Replace if the dressing becomes wet underneath or loosens.
Premapore is a waterproof adhesive dressing used for wound coverage — most commonly for protecting the cannulation site after a hemodialysis session. Once fistula needles are removed and haemostasis is achieved, a Premapore dressing covers both arterial and venous puncture sites, allowing the patient to leave the unit and resume daily activity safely.
Dialysis patients often shower, wash hands, or encounter water on their way home after a session. A waterproof dressing prevents water and contaminants from reaching the puncture sites while the small wounds are still closing, so patients don't have to change their hygiene routine.
Follow your facility's post-cannulation protocol. Most units recommend leaving the dressing in place for 4 to 24 hours, or until the puncture sites have visibly closed and any oozing has stopped. Replace with a fresh dressing if it becomes wet underneath, loosens, or becomes soiled.
Yes. The 10x25cm size is designed to cover both arterial and venous cannulation sites with a single dressing, or a large single wound. This means fewer dressings per session compared to applying separate smaller dressings to each site.
Premapore uses a comfortable, breathable medical adhesive designed for repeated use on the same area without excessive skin trauma. Dialysis patients are frequent users of dressings at the same fistula site — a skin-friendly adhesive is important for long-term comfort.
