NeoBond® Hydrocolloid
Skin friendly NeoBond Hydrocolloid is a protective adhesive that helps decrease the risk of damage to the fragile epidermis of the neonate. AWHONN Neonatal Skin Care (Third Edition, 2013) recommends that hydrocolloids be used in place of other adhesives whenever possible.
Preparation
Clean and dry skin per hospital protocol.
Note: It is important for skin to be as clean and dry as possible. NeoBond will not adhere properly to moist skin or hair. Oils and lotions will also adversely affect adhesion.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL.
Application

Step 2 Peel and discard liner. Wrap or apply NeoBond over skin and product (e.g. feeding tube, limb board) and hold in place for 60 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.
Removal
Step 1 Replace NeoBond every 5 days or per hospital protocol, whichever is sooner.
Step 2 Saturate NeoBond with water or saline.
Step 3 Slowly peel NeoBond away from skin as you swab with water or saline.
