Abstract
A closed-circuit dressing system for preventing moisture contacting PICC sites is provided.

- a breathable bag extending from a distal end to a proximal end;
- the proximal end having an opening and a securement point;
- a dressing film having adhesive along one transparent surface, wherein a film periphery of the dressing film is dimensioned to circumscribe said PICC site;
- a moisture indicator ring inward of said film periphery;
- and
- a breathable film having an inner periphery generally coextensive with a ring periphery of the moisture indicator ring, and the breathable film having an outer periphery generally coextensive with said film periphery,
- whereby the securement point is overlain by the dressing film during use.
