Long available in healthcare facilities, it is a relative novelty in the consumer world. Compared to the cheap, inferior quality tape found in most first aid kits, Transpore is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Designed to be easily torn by hand horizontally and vertically<\/li>\n<li>Porous and allows the skin to breath<\/li>\n<li>Semi-transparent, allowing inspection for blood\/pus<\/li>\n<li>Water-resistant<\/li>\n<li>Latex-free and hypoallergenic<\/li>\n<li>Easy to peel off; residue can be removed with rubbing alcohol or soap<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Transpore is available in a variety of widths but I find the 2\u201d size to be perfect for 99% of first aid applications. It is more expensive than \u2018regular\u2019 medical tape, but its versatility and ease-of-use make it well-worth stocking in your first aid kit. Buy it in bulk from Amazon or eBay for more competitive pricing than your local pharmacy.<\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hypoallergenic porous plastic surgical tape<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26439"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26439"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26439\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37071,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26439\/revisions\/37071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
