Correcting a Leak Condition

To ensure proper application of the Prevena™ Dressing, the Prevena™
125 Therapy Unit provides the VisiCheck™ Feature.
By double pressing the On / Off button, the unit will display the leak
rate of the system for three seconds.
To prevent nuisance leak alarms, the leak rate status should be "Best"
(one light illuminated) or "Good" (two lights illuminated).
If the VisiCheck™ Feature indicates a "Marginal" (three lights
illuminated) leak rate condition, refer to the following Correcting a
Leak Condition section below for methods of reducing the leak rate of
the system. The system leak rate is calculated every seven seconds. If a
corrective action is taken to reduce a leak rate, use the VisiCheck™
Feature afterward to verify the leak rate condition was corrected.
1. With therapy unit on, slowly press firmly around dressing edge to
ensure good contact between adhesive and skin.
2. If a leak is identified, use Prevena™ Patch Strips™ (located in
dressing package) to help seal leaks around dressing. If large
wrinkles are present, place patch strips so they run in line along the
length of the wrinkle and not across the wrinkle.
