Safety 
ACTI-Gard® Antimicrobial Incise Drapes were “repeat patch tested” in humans and found to be safe for the intended use
• Additional animal studies observed no tissue or ocular irritation, sensitization, or toxicity

Effectiveness 
• The antimicrobial agent in ACTI-Gard® was evaluated in laboratory studies and found to be safe and effective in reducing the levels of both laboratory stock and clinical isolates of organisms commonly associated with surgical site infection.

About MCD 
From our beginnings in 1984, Medical Concepts Develo
We know that skin is a significant source of potentially infectious microorganisms such as staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci, which are becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics like methicillin, and account for more than a third of all surgical site infections.

Iodine is the most commonly used surgical skin antimicrobial proven effective against a wide range of microorganisms without forming resistant strains. ACTI-Gard® Antimicrobial Incise coated with adhesive that contains an Iodine releasing agent, can reduce the risk of skin flora contamination.

Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus is a bacterial infection resistant to antibiotic methicillin. Staphylococcus aureus, sometimes referred to simply as "staph," or "staph A" is a common bacterium found on the skin of healthy people. If staph gets into the body it can cause a minor infection such as boils or pimples or serious infections such as pneumonia or blood infections.

One antibiotic commonly used to treat staph infections is methicillin. While methicillin is very effective in treating most staph infections, some staph bacteria have developed a resistance to methicillin and can no longer be killed by this antibiotic. The resistant bacteria are called methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus
or MRSA.
The MCD D6697 C-Section drape's breathable film and low water soluble antimicrobial adhesive make it ideal for long
duration, "wet" procedures.
