Assortment
Application
  1. Remove the fixation strips from the protective cover number 1 and use them to fixate the catheter, cannula wings, cannula needle and/or tubes. The removal and application of the fixation strips can also be performed after the complete application of Cosmopor I.V. transparent to further fixate the cannula/cannula wings and the dressing itself (please see step 4). If that is the case, do not dispose of the protective cover number 1 until removal and application of the fixation strips.
  2. After removing the protective cover number 1, apply the dressing with the transparent window centered on the cannula insertion/exit site. Please note that in the case of Cosmopor I.V. transparent 12x10cm, the upper side of protective cover number 3 may be used as an additional gripping point to precisely position the dressing.
  3. Release protective cover number 2 from the dressing´s legs and apply them onto the catheter, cannula and/or cannula wings. Gently press the entire dressing onto the skin, conforming it to the body contours and the cannula or catheter shape for a secure fixation.
  4. For Cosmopor I.V. transparent 12x10cm, carefully remove the remaining protective cover number 3 afterwards, then apply the upper part of the dressing onto the skin.
  5. The application of the fixation strips may also be performed after step number 3 to further fixate the catheter, cannula, cannula wings and/or tubes (if applicable) and the dressing itself. Removal To safely remove or change Cosmopor I.V. transparent after its individual application time, carefully remove the fixation strips, then loosen an edge of the dressing´s legs and remove them completely. Once the legs have been removed, the cannula must be pressed carefully against the puncture site, so the cannula needle does not move. Then the rest of the dressing must be stretched and removed in its totality, avoiding the cannula‘s and needle‘s movement.
