Device description
The RENASYS GO device is designed to provide NPWT
to a closed environment over a wound, in order to
evacuate 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 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 should be positioned no more than
19in or 50cm higher than the wound and face user's/
operator's location.
The RENASYS GO is a portable Negative Pressure
Wound Therapy (NPWT) device. The RENASYS GO
device is designed to be used with Smith & Nephew
Class II power supply REF 66801558 in home healthcare
and unregulated environments. For proper and effective
use of the RENASYS GO device, use only RENASYS
GO canisters, RENASYS dressing kits and RENASYS
ancillary componentry. Refer to instructions for use
provided with dressing kits for additional information on
dressing use and maintenance.
