Introduction
Device description
This user manual contains important information regarding the safe and effective operation of RENASYS™ GO (REF 66801244; REF 66801496) Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) systems. These devices are intended for use by or on the direction of a trained and licensed physician. This manual is intended to aid in the training of personnel and to provide a reference for experienced users.
RENASYS GO devices are designed to provide NPWT to a closed environment over a wound, in order to evacutate exudates from the wound site to a disposable container, which may promote wound healing via removal of fluids, including irrigation and body fluids, wound exudates and infectious materials. The closed environment is created by applying a RENASYS sterile wound dressing to the wound site and connecting the sealed wound to the suction device. The wound dressing kit is considered to be the patient applied part.
The RENASYS GO Professional Healthcare Model (REF 66801244) is intended for use in acute care settings and other professional healthcare environments where product use is conducted by or under the supervision of a qualified healthcare provider.
The RENASYS GO runs on AC mains power with an AC power adaptor or internal battery power. The internal battery charges when the device is plugged into AC mains power both during operation and when turned off and not in use.
The RENASYS GO Home Healthcare Model (REF 66801496) is intended for use in both professional healthcare facilities and in residential settings, including nursing homes.
The RENASYS GO should be positioned no more than 19 inches or 50cm higher than the wound and face user's/ operator's location.
To ensure that the home healthcare device is safe for use in residential settings, this device is compliant with the IEC medical equipment and medical electrical safety standard 60601-1-11 for use of medical devices in the home healthcare environment. This standard includes the use of a double insulated Class II power supply and Class II power cord.
The RENASYS GO is a portable Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) device. It is designed to be used with Smith & Nephew power supplies, Class I (REF 66800161) and Class II (REF 66801558). For proper and effective use of the RENASYS GO device, use only RENASYS GO canisters, RENASYS dressing kits and RENASYS ancillary componentry.

Important information Monitoring NPWT
Contraindications Use of RENASYS GO is contraindicated in the presence of: • Untreated osteomyelitis • Exposed arteries, veins, organs or nerves • Necrotic tissue with eschar present • Malignancy in wound (with exception of palliative care to enhance quality of life) • Non-enteric and unexplored fistulas • Anastomotic sites
Carefully monitor the patient, device, and dressing frequently to determine if there are any signs of bleeding, exudate accumulation (pooling), infection, maceration, or loss of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT). The frequency should be determined by the clinician based on individual characteristics of the patient and wound. NPWT devices are not designed to detect or issue an alarm condition based on the presence of bleeding or pooling. These conditions may only be detected by frequent monitoring.
Warnings
Special attention to the risks of bleeding or loss of NPWT should be considered when prescribing for use in the Home Environment.
1.
NPWT may be impacted by various conditions related to system configuration, set-up and individual characteristics of the patient and wound (e.g. exudate characteristics, patient anatomy). Alignment of the port to the opening in the drape, use of a bridging technique and choice of dressing configuration based on wound characteristics may impact NPWT vacuum delivery over the course of therapy. Exudate volume, viscosity and consistency may influence fluid removal or occlusion formation. A full canister, incorrect canister orientation and device/tubing height relative to the wound can contribute to loss of NPWT and exudate accumulation within the wound, which could lead to maceration, infection, or unrecognized bleeding.
Carefully monitor patients for signs of bleeding, which may lead to interruption in therapy and hemodynamic instability. If such symptoms are observed, immediately discontinue therapy, take appropriate measures to control bleeding, and contact treating clinician.
2. Patients suffering from difficult hemostasis or who are receiving anticoagulant therapy have an increased risk of bleeding. During therapy, avoid using hemostatic products that, if disrupted, may increase the risk of bleeding. 3. Do not use directly on exposed blood vessels or organs. Sharp edges such as bone fragments must be covered or removed prior to initiating therapy, due to risk of puncturing organs or blood vessels drawn closer under the action of negative pressure.
Monitor the wound for infection and ensure that all wound filler is removed at each dressing change to reduce the risk of infection.
4. NPWT has not been studied on pediatric patients. Patient size and weight should be considered when prescribing the device.
Skin grafts should be closely monitored to ensure NPWT is being delivered.
5. Foam or gauze must not be tightly packed or forced into any wound area. Over-packing may interfere with distribution of NPWT evenly across the wound. This may decrease the ability of the wound to properly contract and permit exudate to remain in wound.
Review Contraindications, Warnings & Precautions before use.
Indications for use
6. In the event defibrillation is required, disconnect device from wound dressing prior to defibrillation. Remove wound dressing only if its location will interfere with defibrillation.
RENASYS™ GO is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (Negative Pressure Wound Therapy), as it may promote wound healing via removal of fluids, including irrigation and body fluids, wound exudates and infectious materials.
7.
Appropriate wound types include: • Chronic • Acute • Traumatic • Sub-Acute and dehisced wounds • Ulcers (such as pressure or diabetic) • Partial-thickness burns • Flaps and grafts
Device is not MRI compatible. Do not bring device into MRI suite. Prior to entering MRI suite, disconnect device from dressing. Dressing can remain intact on patient.
8. Device is unsuitable for use in areas where there is danger of explosion (e.g., hyperbaric oxygen unit).
7
EN
9. When operating, transporting or disposing of device and accessories, there is risk of infectious liquids being aspirated or contamination of device assembly through incorrect use. Universal precautions should be observed whenever working with potentially contaminated components or equipment.
7.
8. When treating enteric fistulas, do not place NPWT dressing in direct contact with exposed bowel. Cover the wound bed, including fistula opening, with non-adherent gauze or with one layer of saline moistened gauze. During the course of treatment patient’s fluid levels must be closely monitored.
10. Device and canister kits are provided non-sterile and should not be placed within a sterile field.
Precautions 1.
In the event a patient with spinal cord injury experiences autonomic dysreflexia, discontinue use of NPWT and immediately seek medical assistance.
9. Avoid use of circumferential dressings except in cases of oedema or heavily exuding extremities, where this technique may be necessary to maintain a seal. Consider using multiple drapes to minimize risk of decreased distal circulation. Regularly assess distal pulses, and discontinue therapy if changes in circulation are detected.
More frequent device and wound dressing monitoring, should be taken for patients who are or may be: • Suffering from infected blood vessels • Receiving anticoagulant therapy or platelet aggregation inhibitors, in addition to patients with intrinsic coagulation problems such as low platelet counts • Actively bleeding or have friable blood vessels or organs • Suffering from difficult wound hemostasis • Untreated for malnutrition • Noncompliant or combative • Suffering from wounds in close proximity to blood vessels or delicate fascia
10. Monitor patient for any signs of local or systemic infection. Infected wounds may require more frequent dressing changes. As NPWT is not intended to directly treat infection, if there are any signs of systemic infection or advancing infection at wound area, contact treating clinician immediately. 11. If multiple pieces of foam or gauze are needed to fill the wound profile, count and record how many pieces are present to ensure all pieces are removed at a dressing change to minimize the risk of retention and possible infection.
When monitoring patients for delivery of therapy, ensure wound dressing is free of air leaks, fully compressed and firm to the touch.
12. NPWT should remain on for duration of treatment. The length of time a patient may be disconnected from device is a clinical decision based on individual characteristics of patient and wound. Factors to consider include location of wound, volume of drainage, integrity of dressing seal, assessment of bacterial burden and patient’s risk of infection.
2. As a condition of use, device should only be used by qualified and authorized personnel. User must have necessary knowledge of the specific medical application for which NPWT is being used. 3. For patients with high risk of bleeding, use 300ml canister. Ensure the 300ml canister viewing is checked frequently for signs of bleeding.
13. Do not use a dressing kit with breached or damaged packaging. 14. Use of NPWT presents a risk of tissue in-growth. Tissue in-growth may be reduced by reducing therapy pressure, using a wound contact layer or increasing the frequency of dressing changes.
4. In the event of heavy or viscous drainage, drainage with sediment or when blood is present, regular monitoring and more frequent dressing changes may be required to reduce the risk of interruption of therapy, maceration, infection, and ensure proper exudate removal.
15. NPWT should not be painful. If patient reports discomfort, consider reducing pressure setting and use of a wound contact layer. Pressure setting is a clinical decision based on individual characteristics of patient and wound. Factors to consider include location of wound, volume of drainage and integrity of dressing seal.
5. Underlying structures, such as bone, tendons, ligaments and nerves should be covered with natural tissue or a non-adherent dressing layer prior to applying the NPWT dressing to ensure protection and minimize the risk of damage from direct contact with the dressing.
16. Maintain regular monitoring of device and wound site during therapy to ensure therapeutic treatment and patient comfort.
6. To minimize the risk of bradycardia, do not place NPWT in proximity to the vagus nerve. 8
EN
17. Device is only to be used with Smith & Nephew authorized components. Use of any other products have not been proven safe and effective with RENASYS™ GO device.
28. As with all adhesive products, apply and remove dressing carefully from sensitive or fragile skin to avoid blistering and skin stripping, especially after frequent dressing changes. Use of skin sealant may assist with protection of periwound skin.
18. Ensure canister tubing and RENASYS Soft Port are installed completely and without any kinks to avoid leaks or blockages in vacuum circuit. Position device and tubing appropriately to avoid risk of a trip hazard. Device and system tubing should be positioned no more than 19 inches or 50cm higher than the wound to ensure optimization of therapy and prevent therapy interruption.
29. If patient must be disconnected, the ends of the RENASYS Soft Port and canister tubing should be protected using tethered caps to avoid leakage of fluid and cross contamination. 30. When using RENASYS F/P or G/P wound dressing kits, ensure dressing clamp is engaged before switching off the device. For re-connection to device, ensure that device is active prior to opening the dressing clamp.
19. When bathing or showering patient must disconnect from device, protecting both ends of RENASYS Soft Port tubing using tethered caps. Ensure aeration disc located near quick click connector is free of moisture before reactivation of therapy to ensure proper alarm functionality and prevent interruption in therapy.
Physician orders Prior to placement of RENASYS GO, the medical professional treating the wound must assess how to best use the system for an individual wound. It is important to carefully assess wound and patient to ensure clinical indications for Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) are met.
20. If any liquids penetrate device, discontinue use and return to your Smith & Nephew authorized provider for service. 21. CT scans and x-ray have the potential to interfere with some electronic medical devices. Keep device out of x-ray or scanner range.
All orders should include: • Wound location, size and type • Smith & Nephew wound dressing kit • Pressure settings • Frequency of dressing changes • Adjunctive dressings
22. Use caution if device is used in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide. 23. AC mains power can only be removed by disconnecting power cord or AC power adaptor. Take care in positioning the device to allow access to cord receptacle. 24. If power cord is damaged, wires are frayed or exposed, do not use power cord. Contact your Smith & Nephew representative for a replacement cord. 25. Canisters should be changed at least once a week, whenever there is a change in patient or in the event that canister contents reach maximum volume indication (300ml or 750ml fill line). Do not wait for the canister over-capacity alarm to activate to change canister. 26. Canisters kits are single use devices. Do not reuse. 27. Do not apply SECURA™ No-sting barrier film wipes directly to open wounds. SECURA No-sting barrier film is flammable. Use in a well ventilated area.

Dressing changes
Canister selection
Refer to instructions for use provided with dressing kits for additional information on dressing use and maintenance.
Device is to be used with RENASYS™ GO 300ml or 750ml canisters.
1.
RENASYS GO canisters use an integral two stage bacterial filter for protection of device against overflow and spread of aspirated micro-organisms.
Foam dressings should be changed every 48 to 72 hours after the initial application of therapy. If no leak is present and the patient is comfortable, subsequent dressing changes should occur no less than 3 times per week.
Canisters are designed for single patient use. Do not re-use. Canisters are provided non-sterile and should not be used in a sterile field.
2. Gauze dressings should be changed 48 hours after the initial application of therapy. If no leak is present and the patient is comfortable, subsequent dressing changes should occur 2–3 times per week.
Canisters should be changed at least once a week, whenever there is a change in patient or in the event the canister contents reach maximum volume indication (300ml or 750ml fill line). Do not wait for alarm activation to change canister.
3. In the event of heavy or viscous drainage, drainage with sediment or when blood is present, regular monitoring and more frequent dressing changes may be required.
Canisters may have to be changed regularly within single-patient treatment episodes if exudate levels are high. Check canisters regularly to monitor exudate levels, ensuring they are below maximum volume indication (300ml or 750ml fill line).
4. When dressing a wound involving a difficult to seal anatomy or exposure to external moisture, frequent inspection of dressing is recommended to ensure a seal is maintained. Ensure wound dressing is fully compressed and firm to the touch.
Check canister for any signs of cracks or damage. If noted, discard and replace canister. Ensure canister viewing window is checked frequently for signs of bleeding.
5. Ensure all wound filler material placed in the wound has been removed before redressing the wound. If foam dressing adheres to the wound, apply saline into the wound dressing and let it set for 15–30 minutes before gently removing the foam. Appropriately discard used wound dressings observing your institution’s protocol for medical waste handling.
For patients with high risk of bleeding, use 300ml canister.
6. As with all adhesive products, apply and remove dressing carefully from sensitive or fragile skin to avoid skin stripping, especially after frequent dressing changes. Use of skin sealant may assist with protection of periwound skin. 7.
Monitor patient for any signs of local or systemic infection by checking dressing frequently. Infected wounds may require more frequent dressing changes. As NPWT is not intended to directly treat infection, if there are any signs of systemic infection or advancing infection at wound area, contact treating clinician immediately.

Safety alarms General All alarms for RENASYS™ GO are determined to be "Low Priority," indicating that operator awareness is required (IEC 60601-1:2005, 3rd edition and IEC 60601-1-8:2006). In an alarm state with the audio paused, if a different alarm state occurs, the audio pause will be canceled, the audio will sound and the display screen will indicate the new alarm state. When multiple alarm states are present, the device's display screen will alternate between the display information for each alarm activated. Cautions – Lack of alarms: RENASYS GO device is equipped with high flow/leak, low vacuum and complete blockage/canister over-capacity alarms to alert users to these events occurring during therapy. These alarms are designed to activate based on changes in pressure status detected by device. However, there are scenarios that may occur during therapy that can impact alarm functionality. Therefore, it is important that patient, device and wound dressing are monitored at an appropriate interval to ensure therapy is being delivered. Over vacuum alarm: The system has encountered an excessively high vacuum (of >235mmHg) and device will stop delivering therapy. Event must be investigated by healthcare provider immediately and corrected. Alarm state Over vacuum

Complete blockage/canister over-capacity alarm: The system detects a complete blockage in the system, this includes a canister where contents have reached maximum volume capacity. There will be no negative pressure at the wound site. Once corrected, alarm will automatically reset and status/alarm indicator will return to solid green. Alarm state

Audible alarm Beeps 2 times every 20 seconds Audio may be paused Paused for 2–3 minutes
Cautions – Complete blockage/canister over-capacity alarm: Complete blockage/canister over-capacity alarm activation is driven by occlusion of filter located at top of canister. As canister fills with fluid, the filter will begin to occlude as fluid makes continuous contact, creating a complete blockage in vacuum circuit. A completely occluded filter will result in canister over-capacity alarm activation. Complete blockage/canister over-capacity alarm will not activate until filter is completely occluded. Canister orientation, rate at which fluid enters canister and how exudate solidifies can impact filter occlusion and canister over-capacity alarm functionality. Canisters should be kept in an upright orientation to optimize canister over-capacity alarm functionality while maximizing canister volume. When canister is operating in horizontal orientation, facing upward, alarm functionality may be compromised. Refer to information on canister orientation on page 6. To optimize canister over-capacity alarm functionality, canister must be changed in the event the canister contents reach maximum volume indication (300ml or 750ml fill line). Do not wait for alarm activation to change the canister. Note: For RENASYS F/P or G/P wound dressing kits, the complete blockage alarm will only activate if a complete blockage occurs with the canister tubing. There is no blockage detection in the dressing tubing.
