Reviewing the new Standards, I am wondering what petroleum based ointment is being used to occlude a site after Picc or Midline removal. We use to use Betadine ung. but it is no longer available to us. Any suggestions?

We use individual packets of white petrolatum skin protectant. The brand name on them is Fougera. No specific reason for the brand just the product we get when we order it. Valorie
