Hello good,
My question is if you use something and what to prevent the sensor from taking off.
It gets more and more trouble than with sweat, showers etc ... It takes off and more now with the summer entrance.
Thank you!
Prevent free2 sensor from taking off
Hello good,
My question is if you use something and what to prevent the sensor from taking off.

The most normal thing is to put a hypoallergenic kinesio tape.But once you put it you have to leave it.If not, you would take off the sensor.There are many kinesio tapes.You can buy them in pharmacies or other stores.The qualities vary and you have to see the ones that best go to you.Do not buy a tape anywhere and make sure it is of good quality!

Hello!I assure my son with a film called Hypafix, we find it very good.Of those I tried, the one I liked the most.As Jldiazdel says, then I don't touch it because you can start the sensor.I put a large piece and if the edges are taken a bit, I cut them with a scissors.

I have used fixomull for years and always perfect, once I have had to take it out to get the sensor and load it or restart it, but of course, carefully by pressing the sensor so you don't take it taking it off the tape and better with helpof someone.
Yes, it's true, Fixomull is a very good option!

I have heard about Figomull, is it a good solution?
@Marta5
Do you mean Fixomull?Figomull or idea
Fixomull works very well.It sticks like a bass and is very fine.You cut it as you want

My trick so that the sensor does not take off is to cut a little flu
Hello, I use some dressings that come in roll, they are transparent and waterproof the problem is that with sweat you create bubbles and end up taking off, also dragging the sensor sometimes, since it also suffers anomalies in its adhesive with heat.I am trying to look for the same or similar but microperforado, to transpire the skin..com/Uploads/editor/l2/aotzau0f9fxy.jpg "style =" max-width: 300px;
I also tried fixomull but this one is better.Not all pharmacies have it can be requested online.
We occasionally use cohesive tape (we bought it on the Internet or in Decathlon)
As you don't stick, you can use it only when you are afraid of falling
Hello.I bought Fixomull because Aquagym did, until one day I needed to buy urgently in a pharmacy that was not the usual and they told me that they only had Tagaderm and they informed me that the Social Security passes it.It's great!Now I don't use it because I changed sport, but for summer, beach, pool (and even in a spa) it is great.And it comes much cheaper
Evolution: Tegaderm PAD Reference 3586 of 3m.He hits very well and if he starts to take off, as the center is a dressing that does not stick, he goes out without damaging the sensor.In winter it lasts 14 days, in summer I need to change it 1 or 2 times.
You can ask for it in your pharmacy with the 254342 code, or bichear by the network.
The best thing is the plastic aposty in Aerosol Nobecuta, does not take off, is economical, and lasts a Monton.I recommend it without any doubt.I don't use anything other than they recommended me is great.
They always indicate to put it on the arm, I have tried it where the intramuscular ones usually occur, and the sensor works the same, someone tried to try in another place?, My next place will be the belly
Hello!My doctor's doctor advised me and that is what I use.I can remove and put whenever I want and they do well.It seems to me that they are comfortable and you barely notice.
Well, I wear hypoallergenic tape of a lifetime and does not move from my thigh or buttock.
Now I carry it in the buttock.
