IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR USERS

WARNING: DO NOT use with V.A.C. VERAFLO™ Therapy (Instillation) provided by the
V.A.C.ULTA™ Therapy Unit. Instillation into the incision site may result in pooling of fluid which
may result in maceration.
WARNING: The V.A.C.ULTA™ and V.A.C.RX4™ Therapy Units are only indicated for use in
acute care settings. Before transitioning the patient to home care, these therapy units must
be replaced with one for home use, such as the PREVENA PLUS™125, ACTIV.A.C.™, V.A.C.
SIMPLICITY™ or V.A.C. FREEDOM™ Therapy Unit.
For pressure settings and connection information for use of the PREVENA™ Dressings with the V.A.C.®
Therapy Units listed above, see the Using the PREVENA™ Dressing with KCI V.A.C.® Therapy Units
