Abstract: Pressure sensitive tape is a kind of medical tape, in the medical field, it belongs to medical materials and dressings, is the second class of medical instruments, widely used in the medical field, including surgery, wound and incontinence care, monitoring, diagnosis and other links are used. Compared with ordinary medical tape, pressure sensitive tape is mainly different in material and function. Let's take a look at the difference between pressure sensitive tape and medical tape.

First, pressure sensitive tape belongs to medical tape

Medical tape is a special tape used in the medical field. There are many kinds of it. Pressure sensitive tape also belongs to a kind of medical tape.

Medical pressure sensitive tape has the characteristics of no contamination of the adhesive after peeling, recorrection when sticking wrong, can be reused many times, easy to operate, elastic, not easy to break, non-toxic, odorless, tasteless, etc., widely used in the medical equipment and consumables industry, pressure sensitive tape is widely used in surgery, wound and incontinence care, monitoring, diagnosis and other links are used.

Two, pressure sensitive tape belongs to several types of medical devices

Second class.

According to the classification and definition of medical device Standard Management Center, pressure sensitive tape is divided into medical health materials and dressings, belonging to the second category of medical devices.
