Dressing Kit with So Port application
Clean and debride
If dressing wound with foam
Debride any devitalized ornecrotic eschar tissue.
Cleanse the wound and pat dry.
Cut foam dressing to t the size and shape of the wound
and place cut foam intothe wound. Avoid over packing.
Foam should completely ll the wound cavity. It may be
necessary to stack pieces of foam in deep wounds.
Precaution: If multiple pieces of wound filler 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.
Foam should be cut to fit loosely into wound bed. Do not force or tightly packfoam into
any areas ofthe wound to avoid damaging underlying tissue.
Do not place foam into blind or unexplored tunnels.
If a tunnel of known depth presents, cut foam longer than the tunnel, to ensure direct
contact is made with the foam in the primary wound cavity.
Do not cut foam directly over the wound cavity toavoid foam fragments from falling
into thewound. Rub edges of the foam away from the open wound to remove loose
fragments aer cutting.

If desired, a non-adherent woundcontact layer may
