Our safety device is registered as an FDA Class 1 Medical Device, which deems the product is safe for use and will cause no harm to the patient. This process requires a strenuous review by the FDA, routine submissions in regard to product enhancements or changes and a significant financial investment by the Company.

The Ben-Guard catheter safety products are available in a bodysuit and a tank top in navy, light blue, red and pink colors. Standard sizes are 0-3 months to 4T in the bodysuit and 12-18 months to small adult sizes in the tank top. We are happy to discuss other unique size requests.

We are working with Pediatric Hospitals and Charities around the country, discussing funding and pilot study concepts to measure clinically impactful criteria for publication.

Yes, our products are designed to accommodate Central Venous Catheters, G/J-tubes, and other tubing devices, pumps and batteries, simultaneously when necessary. Ben-Guard continues to develop additional solutions to address catheter-related complications for children and adults.

66% Rayon derived from bamboo; 28% cotton; 6% Spandex

The risk of pediatric tubing complication is constant as long as the device is placed in the body.  For this reason, the Ben-Guard products are designed to be comfortably and effectively worn 24/7, as a base or outer layer. For this safety reason and to assure that a clean product is always worn over the insertion site, it is recommended that each child is issued a minimum of 3 Ben-Guard products.

Ben-Guard’s products are washable and can be cleaned by home or hospital laundry, though may wear out more quickly when routinely cleaned in an industrial machine, due to the spandex in the material.

Our products have been laundered in a certified hospital laundry facility (per IDPH Standards), a minimum of 10 times. Aside from slight color fading and shrinkage (due to the spandex and only on the first cleaning), the testing showed no sign of deterioration to the snaps, straps and water-resistant front pocket. 

Specific testing results will be provided upon request.
