Directions (follow all directions for use)

  • at the end of the prep, discard any portion of the solution which is not required to cover the prep area. It is not necessary to use the entire amount available.
Getting Patient Ready for Solution:
  • use in well-ventilated area
  • do not microwave or heat the solution applicator
  • apply to clean, completely dry, residue-free, intact skin
  • when hair removal is necessary, use a surgical clipper on the morning of the surgery. If a wet shave is used, thoroughly remove all soap residues.
Activating the Applicator:
  • with sponge face parallel to the floor, press the cap end of the applicator. Solution will begin to flow into the sponge.
  • wait for fluid level to reach indicator line of applicator barrel
When Applying Solution:
  • DO NOT SCRUB. Paint a single, uniform application and do not reprep area.
  • do not allow solution to pool. Use sponge applicator to absorb excess solution and continue to apply a uniform coating. If solution accidentally gets outside of prep area, remove excess with gauze.
  • clean umbilicus with enclosed swabs when applicable. (Moisten swabs by pressing against solution-soaked sponge applicator.)
  • tuck prep towels as needed under both sides of the neck to absorb excess solution. Remove towels before draping.
  • avoid getting solution into hairy areas. Wet hair is flammable. Hair may take up to 1 hour to dry.
  • when prepping skin folds, toes, or fingers, use a sterile-gloved hand to hold skin apart until completely dry. Otherwise, skin may adhere to itself.

After Applying Solution:
  • to reduce the risk of fire, wait until solution is completely dry (minimum of 3 minutes on hairless skin; up to 1 hour in hair). Solution will turn from a shiny to a dull appearance on skin alerting the user that the solution is completely dry and no longer flammable.
While Waiting for Solution to Completely Dry:
  • do not drape or use ignition source (e.g., cautery, laser)
  • check for pooled solution. Use sterile gauze to soak up pooled solution.

Do not blot because it may remove solution from skin.

  • remove solution-stained materials. Replace if necessary.
A4096 EPIDURAL
After Solution is Completely Dry:
  • to reduce the risk of fire, begin draping and/or using cautery only after solution is completely dry and all solution-stained materials are removed
  • if incise drapes are used, apply directly to dry prep. On completion of surgical procedure, removal of incise drape will remove film.
  • apply dressing following standard practices

Other information
  • store between 20-25ºC (68-77ºF)
  • avoid excessive heat above 40ºC (104ºF)
  • solution is not water soluble and may stain. Therefore, avoid contact with reusable items (basins, instruments).
