  • 3M™ Prevena™ Incision Management System Patient Video

    Protecting your incision is important to your recovery, which is why your doctor has prescribed you Prevena Therapy – a portable, disposable system, that uses negative pressure (like a vacuum) to help protect your incision. Prevena Therapy is the first device indicated by FDA to help reduce superficial surgical site infection in patients at high risk for post-operative infections.*

    This page will provide you with the resources you need to learn how your 3M™ Prevena™ Incision Management System works, provide you with answers to frequently asked questions, and offer advice on what to do if you need additional help. Start by watching the educational video for everyday tips for wearing and caring for your system, and how to read and troubleshoot the alerts on your unit.

    *The effectiveness of 3M™ Prevena™ Therapy in reducing the incidence of SSIs and seroma in all surgical procedures and populations has not been demonstrated. See full indications for use and limitations at mykci.com.
