It is important to monitor the activity of the device while you are using the
therapy.
IMPORTANT: Items to monitor include:
• The dressing.
It should have a raisin-like appearance and be firm to the touch.
Dressing compressed and
firm to the touch
If your dressing is not compressed, press down around the
edges of your dressing. If your dressing begins to draw down and
compress, you have resealed your dressing. If the dressing remains
decompressed, contact your healthcare provider.
• The amount of fluid in the canister.
If the canister is 2/3 full of fluid or greater, it needs to be replaced.
• The device display and indicator lights on the front of the device.
For an explanation of any device display messages, indicator lights or
audio signals, refer to the Alarms and Troubleshooting section of this
Home Healthcare User Manual.
