Celox A, where 'A' signifies an applicator, functions as a syringe-like device for precise Celox granule application directly into wounds.
The Celox A unit contains detailed instructions and expiry date information. It's equipped with a plunger mechanism to administer Celox granules efficiently.
To access the applicator, tear or cut along the top of the packet, ensuring gloves are worn for safety.
Utilizing the Celox A applicator involves careful steps to ensure effective wound treatment.
Remove the cap from the top and the blue cap from the bottom to prepare the applicator for use.
Insert the plunger into the applicator, ensuring a secure fit for proper functionality.
Locate the wound site, and with gloved hands, insert the applicator deep into the wound to apply Celox granules directly at the base.
Apply pressure on the plunger while slowly withdrawing the applicator to distribute the granules evenly within the wound.
Apply steady pressure to prevent granule spillage and ensure thorough wound coverage.
After granule application, apply direct pressure to the wound for three minutes to control bleeding.
Check for bleeding cessation. If bleeding persists, continue applying pressure for an additional three minutes.
Once bleeding is controlled, apply a standard pressure dressing. Ensure the Celox A packet wrapper is included within the bandage for hospital reference.
