Invia Foam Dressing Kit with FitPad
®
The Invia Foam Dressing Kit with FitPad is intended to be used in conjunction with the Invia Motion and
Invia Liberty Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Systems (NPWT).
Invia NPWT instructions advise 24 hour therapy without interruption. If therapy is discontinued for more than 2 hours,
the dressing should be replaced and therapy restarted by a healthcare professional.
This Quick Card does not replace the instructions for use REF 200.8923.
1. Thoroughly
clean and
debride the
wound.
Apply skin prep
to protect the
peri-wound
skin.
4. Rub the edges
of the foam to
remove any
loose
particles.
7. Now remove
the transparent
backing layer
labeled 2.
10. Peel the
backing
off the FitPad
to expose the
adhesive.
2. If required,
apply a
non-adherent
contact layer
prior to placing
the foam into
the wound.
5. Place the foam
into the wound
cavity. Do not
tightly pack or
force foam into
areas of the
wound. Do not
allow the foam to
overlap onto
intact skin.
8. Remove the
perforated silver
colored tab on
the side. The
film should
extend 3–5 cm
beyond the
wound margin
to facilitate
adequate seal.
11. Place the
FitPad
centered over
the previously
cut hole in the
dressing.
Press firmly
for adher-
ence.
3. Cut the foam to
fit the size and
shape of the
wound. Do not
cut directly over
the wound.
6. Apply
transparent
film. Partially
peel back one
side of layer 1
and place the
adhesive side
down. Remove
the remaining
side of layer 1.
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.
