LIFE SAVER - LITERALLY

I cannot say enough great things about this product. Our little guy got his central line when he was 10 months old. He had pulled the skinny out of his dressing within hours of getting the line placed. He was bleeding and had to go back to IR to make sure it was still placed correctly. The first several days we had to change his dressing multiple times a day. His skin was breaking down and I was a mess with worry not to mention he didn't enjoy the dressing changes. I ordered the vest and once we started using it we FINALLY made it a week before we had to change the dressing. It was a night and day difference!!! Not only does the vest hold his line in place, it keeps his dressing safe during the many blow outs and vomits we have. I can't even imagine how many dressing changes the vest has saved us and probably many line infections because of that. We haven't had an infection yet a year later thankfully. I am so so so grateful to Gus Gear for this amazing product. Being a medical parent is hard enough with many worries and it is so nice that the vest can take away a few of those worries! Thank you Gus Gear!

Long Line Covers

Makes TPN management at home easier

I have purchased 4 line covers and we have been using them daily for over a year. Our daughter has a tpn line and a lipid line that we combine in the line cover. This helps keep the lines clean, conveniently together so she gets less wrapped up, and just easier overall to handle all these lines throughout the day. This makes life easier to manage at home with tpn and even when we have hospitalizations i take them to the hospital and use it on their tubing as well because it is just so much more convenient and manageable throughout the day.

Must have for peace of mind.

Our gus gear central line vest is a must have. My daughter wears hers all the time and this vest has saved her line many times, especially once she started crawling and walking. It also keeps her hands away from her dressing and we can change the dressing weekly instead of every few days. This is a must have for little ones moving around constantly. This vest gives me so much peace of mind and makes our medical home just a little less stressful. Also costumer service is top notch. Any time i have had a question or a problem this company gets right back to you right away to make it right or just help with general questions and concerns. This is really appreciated.

Living life with confidence thanks to Gus Gear vests

We could not be anymore grateful for these Gus Gear vests to protect our daughter's central line. They give us so much piece of mind when she is both playing and sleeping. It helps keep her line protected, safe from wandering hands and secure. Access is so easy and the fit is comfortable and adaptable, which is great considering how petite our daughter is. Thank you for creating an essential piece of protective wear that enables our daughter to live a much happier life.

Thanks for this product and the peace of mind

We did buy 2 Gus Gear vests and we love them! It's been a game changer for us. Our son had a line break in the hospital during his last stay which worried me enough to change the position of his broviac to chest and use the Gus Gear for stability. He does great with accessing his line this way, it just became the new routine. Thank you for your brilliant creation and know that it means a lot to those of us who are in a hard and scary situation. Thank you again.

Invaluable product for a TPN Mama!!

What a great product to keep my infant's TPN lines and feeding tube tucked altogether and out of reach of little hands! Quality construction with super sticky Velcro! Keeps everything covered yet accessible. With all the worries that already come with caring for a central line, this product helps ease some of the concern! Definitely recommend!

A MUST HAVE! NO PRODUCT COMES CLOSE!

We received the old style Gus Gear at the hospital in 2020 (no longer available), in 2021 we received the new style, which is available today. There was a learning curve with the new style, however, after using it you start to understand why the improvements make it better than the last. I COULD NOT IMAGINE MY SON GOING ONE SINGLE HOUR OF THE DAY WITHOUT HIS VEST ON. It provides me complete peace of mind, he cannot grab it, it can't get caught as he runs and jumps and finagles his 2 year old ninja body throughout the house! When he gets into the sink the vest takes on most of the water, protecting his central line bandage from being soaked. I simply can't imagine not having this vest for him. This vest SPECIFICALLY! I searched high and low on all the platforms available for a vest, most of the vests are just cheaper, MUCH LOWER quality than this. I thought about buying from elsewhere but it didn't make since. The vest is worn every. single. day. It is worth the investment of peace of mind for me and safety for my baby. Get the Gus Gear, you wont regret it. SUPERIOR QUALITY, HANDS DOWN!

Life changing

We were initially wary of ordering a central line wrap because it felt like an expensive investment if it didn't work ( we are in the UK). We have been using the central line wrap since our son started school and it has been life changing. His line is safely contained and secure whilst he is in school and we don't have to worry about it being pulled or broken. Every time we visit the hospital the medical professionals are impressed with the wrap. It has also taken some of the worry away at night because his line is secure when he rolls about in bed. We now have enough wraps for the week so that we can change them regularly and he wears one all of the time. It gives us peace of mind and takes away the worry about his line.

GG vests are a total game changer for kiddo with central line

We love love LOVE our Gus Gear vest. It allows my 3 year-old to move, play, fall, climb, and do all the things his two older brothers do, all while keeping his central line secured and safe. It has been a game changer for us!

Fantastic Customer Service

I have to say that this company/team have excellent customer service and are incredibly professional. I ordered the wrong size Gus Gear Central Line Vest so I spoke to Sarah on line who very quickly assured me that this was not a problem and she resolved the situation immediately. My daughter has now got the correct size, it is well made and fit for purpose; I will definitely order another one. Thank you for your help and support with this product.

“I don’t feel safe with this off.”

My son is now 15 and been wearing this vest for many years now (with NO broken lines!). He still tells me he wants to wear it all the time because he just doesn’t feel his central line is safe even to have the vest off for a short period. It gives us all peace of mind! Thank you!

Wonderful company and customer service!

The vest is great quality and the customer service is even better—OUTSTANDING! You can tell that the owner has a personal connection to the product and to this community. I emailed her with questions before placing my order and she responded right away. I also had questions about how to use the vest for my son’s line (photo attached of my handsome boy!) and I was able to schedule a virtual visit for the following day. She did a demo of the vest. I sent her photos of my son’s line and she went above and beyond and sent me recommendations on how to position the line so that the vest works as intended. She even gave a suggestion on having the tubing attach to the back so that my son can’t pull at the line! My overall experience has been wonderful! Thank you!!

Great fit and quality

I have checked other pages where they sell ostomy pouch covers, even less expensive, but they did not convince me. I wanted to try this one because the website presentation gave more details and looks more professional. I am glad I did. The quality and fit of this product are great. And today I am here to purchase another one.

This vest is perfect for my toddler with busy hands. We haven't had a line pull or break since we got the vest. We even have a back up so he can ALWAYS have it on. It is worth every penny and then some.

Thanks Gus Gear!

Our little Aussie daughter has been wearing Gus Gear central line vests 24/7 since we discovered them after she pulled two lines out. We recently bought the new design vest and after they arrived I needed to seek assistance. Gus Gear’s after-sale support was exemplary. I received genuine interest in solving our problem. In no time, I received custom-made modifications that solved our particular problem, with no additional cost or shipping requested. Thank you so much, Gus Gear.

So pleased!

We just got our vest today and I am so pleased with it! It feels well-made, sturdy and like we’ll be able to count on it for preventing line damage. Originally we ordered up in size because her measurements were at the end of the spectrum for the size she fit into. It ended up being the wrong size and it just didn’t work for our little one, but with this one everything feels just right and she isn’t bothered at all by it. We’re so grateful for Gus Gear. It’s so important to have access to these products to keep her line safe! Highly recommend!

Would highly recommend!

We have purchased multiple items from Gus Gear for our daughter who has a central line, ostomy, and g-tube. We have always been super satisfied with the product, especially the central line vests! Knowing that our daughter's line is always protected with these vests is very comforting. Gus Gear has been wonderful to work with and I have recommended it to many people! Thank you Gus Gear for making products that help keep our kiddos safe!

Love the upgraded version of the central line vest!

We have used Gus Gear central line wraps for approximately 7 years for our daughter Ava, who has a broviac line. We were a little hesitant and nervous to try the new design since we loved the original wraps so much. We definitely like the new ones and plan to order additional ones soon! In Ava’s words, “It’s different....but it’s GOOD!” According to Ava, she likes that the new vest does not have Velcro in the middle of her back that could catch on her shirt. We both really like how the new vest can be adjusted for fit in several different areas. Thank you Gus Gear for continuing to evolve and improve to help so many patients!

Your pouch covers are the best. I just had my permanent ileostomy and I ordered pouch covers from several different sites. Yours, by far, are the best. I love the designs too. Your covers are AWESOME!!!!!! Having a cover that fits my bag like a glove is such a Blessing! I truly believe you are doing God’s work by helping people with ileostomies. Xxxooo

Absolutely love the central line wraps. My son is 5 and has worn one 24/7 since he was 3 months old. He has had 2 lines his entire life and 0 line infections and I think a huge part of that is due to these wraps! Sarah is so helpful, accommodating with any special requests I’ve had!

Love being able to keep my daughter’s G-tube covered up and not have the line dangling, getting caught on everything. The fabric is so soft and comfortable that she doesn’t mind wearing it at all!

My daughter loves her G-tube wrap! She just recently had a peg j-tube placed and it is not very stable and she is stressed about it getting pulled. These wraps have been great at keeping the tube in place! Thank you!

My son has a very complex medical condition, requiring IV infusions almost 24 hrs a day, through a central line catheter. Despite the seriousness of his medical condition, my son is also a very active child who enjoys jumping on the trampoline, roughhousing with his siblings and playing with classmates at recess. Prior to using the Gus Gear’s Central Line Wrap, my son had multiple line breaks and central line infections, including a serious septic episode. We began using the Central Line Wrap 8 years ago. In those last 8 years, my son has not had a single central line break or line infection. Gus Gear’s Central Line Wrap keeps my son’s central line cleaner as it’s covered and away from his g-tube and ostomy. My son’s central line is completely secure, using the Central Line Wrap, giving me peace of mind and allowing my son to enjoy life to the fullest. It has truly changed our lives!

Every now and again I come across something that I feel I must share with others. While there are lots of great products that I have mentioned over the years, my first pouch cover from Gus Gear is among my favorites. The craftsmanship that went into the pouch cover is amazing compared to others out there. Sarah at Gus Gear has thought of everything between the draw string to tighten the cover around my 2 piece flange, the material on the back of the cover, the closure at the bottom, and the slots in the back of the cover for an ostomy belt to keep both the appliance and pouch cover close. It is without a doubt the most perfect pouch cover, one in which gave me the courage to go to the pool with my sun, with my shirt off almost eager to display my new accessory. I got so excited I’ve ordered some fabric online and am working with Sarah on several custom pouch covers. If you are looking for a pouch cover you owe it to yourself to check out.

Thanks Gus Gear! Mikenzee’s line covers and Joey bag cover (which I’m using to cover her bile bag) arrived today. She is looking less medical already. And we are looking forward to a tangle free night!
Wonderful customer service, I purchased these on the 13th of March and received them today, 10 days later all the way over in Australia. Very happy customer!

I wanted to once again thank you for these wonderful central line wraps. Our Evie is 9 months old and is on the move all the time. Before purchasing these wraps, we had to get her dressing changed every couple of days because it was pulling out. We have been alternating the three central line wraps we bought for over a week now and the line has stayed nice and snug under the dressing! Such a blessing! With how important it is to keep this site clean and intact, these wraps have definitely been the answer. Thanks again!

These line covers are awesome at keeping all my daughter’s lines from getting tangled! They used to be such a jumbled mess all the time, but they aren’t any more, thanks to your covers. I love that I can pick exactly the length I want for them too!

We LOVE the central line wraps and use them daily for our 2-year-old daughter that is TPN dependent.  We love them so much that we recently ordered several new ones in the next size up.  Gus Gear central line wraps have helped keep our daughter’s Broviac line in place and infection free since we started using them over a year and a half ago.  These wraps are especially helpful when worrying about lines being pulled on by an active infant and toddler and/or keeping young children’s hands away from the dressing and site. This product is durable, comfortable, and has held up wonderfully through daily wear and tear and multiple washings.  The unique design of this wrap allows for quick and easy access when we need to infuse TPN, IV medications, or complete weekly labs (especially convenient during inpatient hospital stays).

Our home health nurses and nurses in the hospital constantly RAVE about how convenient and protective this wrap is for any patient with a central line.  I would recommend this to anyone that has a child with a central line, especially a Broviac.
