Abstract
An antimicrobial orthopedic pin percutaneous protection kit is provided comprising a shield and a pad and patch combination. The shield comprises a central elastomeric collar having a longitudinal orifice and having one end of the collar substantially orthogonally disposed to an elastomeric peripheral flange, the flange extending around the end of the collar, with a radial slit extending through the collar and flange from the longitudinal orifice of the collar to the outer edge of the flange. The shield is adapted with a means for securing the collar around an orthopedic pin to prevent longitudinal motion of the pin. The patch contains an antimicrobial agent and is centrally attached to a porous pad. The pad and patch have a pressure-sensitive adhesive coating on the exposed surfaces.
