CAUTION: U.S. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
1. Thoroughly
clean and
debride the
wound.
Apply skin prep
to protect the
peri-wound
skin.
4. Saturate the
gauze with
the saline
provided.
9. Select
appropriate
location for the
suction pad
(FitPad) to be
applied. Pinch
the film and cut
a small hole
(approx. 1 cm).
12. Attach the
dressing tubing
to the pump
tubing by
pushing the
Quick-connec-
tor together until
you hear a click.
2. If required,
apply a
non-adherent
contact layer
prior to placing
the gauze into
the wound.
5. The gauze
should fit
loosely into
the wound bed.
Do not tightly
pack or force
gauze into
areas of the
wound.
10. Peel the
backing off
the FitPad
to expose the
adhesive.
7. Now remove
the transparent
backing layer
labeled 2.
3. Cut the gauze
to fit the size
and shape of the
wound. Do not
cut the gauze
directly over the
wound.
6. Apply
transparent
film. Partially
peel back one
side of layer 1
– place the
adhesive side
down. Remove
the remaining
side of layer 1.
11. Place the
FitPad
centered over
the previously
cut hole in the
dressing.
Press firmly
for adher-
ence.
8. Remove the
perforated silver
colored tab on
the side. The film
should extend
3–5 cm beyond
the wound
margin to
facilitate an
adequate seal.
