– The device has not been studied on pediatric patients.
– Patient size and weight should be considered when prescribing this device.
– The use of negative pressure presents a risk of tissue ingrowth into the foam. Tissue
ingrowth may be reduced by, reducing therapy pressure, using a wound contact layer
or by increasing the frequency of dressing changes.
– As a condition of use, this device should only be used by qualified and authorized
personnel. The user must have the necessary knowledge of the specific medical
application for which Invia White Foam is being used.
– Ensure that tubing is installed completely and without any kinks to avoid leaks or
blockages in the suction circuit.
– Underlying structures, such as tendons, ligaments and nerves should be covered with
natural tissue or a non-adherent dressing layer prior to applying Invia White Foam.
– Maintain regular monitoring of the wound site during therapy to ensure therapeutic
treatment and patient comfort.
– Upon dressing changes, ensure that all pieces of foam are removed from the wound.
– As with all adhesive products apply and remove the dressing carefully from sensitive
or fragile skin to avoid skin tripping, especially after frequent dressing changes.
