Smith & Nephew RENASYS EDGE Canister with Solidifier, 300 mL
300 mL Single-Use Canister with Solidifier for RENASYS EDGE NPWT
Product Description
Managing negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) requires a reliable, hygienic system for collecting wound exudate. The canister is a critical component, as it must securely contain drainage while protecting the pump and the patient from contamination. For patients at high risk of bleeding or those with higher drainage volumes, having the appropriate canister size and safety features is essential for safe and effective therapy

This 300 mL canister is a single-use accessory specifically for the RENASYS EDGE NPWT system, designed to collect wound exudate and fluids removed during therapy . The canister features a two-stage bacterial filter to protect the device from overflow and the spread of microorganisms . It is supplied with a solidifying agent that gels the collected exudate, helping to safely contain fluids . The 300 mL size is specifically recommended for patients at high risk of bleeding, as it allows for more frequent monitoring of exudate for signs of blood

It is a single-use device that should be changed at least once a week, or whenever the canister contents reach the 300 mL fill line—do not wait for the over-capacity alarm to activate . The canister is not sterile and is not made with natural rubber latex . Each box contains 5 canisters
