CareAline’s Hypoallergenic PICC Line Sleeve with patented utility offers a buttonhole that guides line(s) off the skin providing a barrier from bacteria and contamination, while also protecting the skin from irritation and pressure related injuries, helping reduce exposure to infection. It is the only product on the market to have a securing pocket technology to safely store and secure PICC Lines and extensions. The two-layer design provides safe securement that keeps the patient in mind and was functionally designed to reduce dependency on adhesive products. Hypoallergenic cotton offers high quality comfort first, breathable material, with no added skin irritants such as coatings, latex or rubber.

How to use the CareAline PICC Sleeve
After simply pulling the sleeve onto your arm and over the insertion site, the cap(s) and line is fed through a buttonhole then placed in a pocket. The pocket is a simple but important feature that keeps lines and caps off of the skin and is unique to CareAline’s patented products. The top of the sleeve is then folded down providing a second layer of protection. Access the line as indicated while keeping the sleeve in place and secure. The pocket can be faced up or down to accommodate line placement.

Keeps it safe
The product is well constructed and the pocket offers good protection for my PICC line. It is a little bit longer than I would like and in the summer months it tends to get hot. I wish there was an option for a thinner or more breathable fabric and a shorter sleeve. I think I would be fine with this in the winter but my PICC better be gone by then.

Best Picc Line Cover ever!
This is the only Picc Line Cover with a little pocket for the Lumens/caps, so they are contained and do not cause the possibility of occasional irritation to sensitive skin. My daughter loves hers and all of the nurses that see them ask about them. One nurse asked for your website to share the info on these covers with the hospital staff. My only suggestion is to maybe include a few funky fabric patterns for those that want something a bit more fun to wear for those that want add a little flair. Thank you for a great product!

PICC Sleeve
I LOVE the Soft material. But the picc doesn't line up with the pocket. My PICC line is more on the side and side of elbow. Unlike your video. Since its on the side, the catheter tends to pull if i try to place it in button hole and pocket. So I don;t use the button hole or pocket. On day one, I had to keep pulling the sleeve up my upper arm. Could be a bit more snug. My arm measures 12 inch and I got the size 4-7. The material is very soft and comfortable. It does protect the PICC line from pulling on clothes.

amazing customer care!
Wow! I just emailed CareAline to let them know the sleeve I received was too big (note: if you measure 11" you may want a size 4, not 5). The owner of the company called me within 10 minutes (11:30pm their time) to apologize and let me know a new one was on it's way to me. I'm impressed! I've done a lot of research and talked to a lot of people and this is by far the best picc line sleeve out there and I'm so excited to try it in the right size. I appreciate and respect the work ethic and sincerity of these owners. Thank you for providing a great product and excellent service!

Great PICC Cover
What a good design and execution of a product. This is by far my favorite PICC cover - the pocket is what makes this work. My extensions fit in the pocket and get covered nicely. I highly recommend this product.

Great product! Excellent protection.
This is a great product and I would high recommend it to anyone that has a picc line. It offers protection from the outside elements as well as easy access. I have 2 for my active 13 month old, so when one gets dirty, I can put the other one on. It fits on my daughters upper tigh perfectly.

A total lifesaver
I ordered the Care-A-Line sleeve for my 3-year old son who is currently receiving a 28-day continuous infusion through his PICC line. He is an active toddler so keeping his PICC line, infusion line and bandage in place is a daunting task. Prior to receiving Care-A-Line, we had to go back to the clinic nearly every day to get the bandage replaced because his bandage kept coming up. The sleeve works perfectly to keep the line, PICC and bandage in place. His entire medical team is really impressed with the product and he likes it too (he calls it his Spiderman arm). Thank you so much!
