With its pre-wired electrodes, hydrogel center, and hydrocolloid border, Neotech’s Mini NeoLead is ideal for neonatal use. The NeoBond Hydrocolloid border helps stop the hydrogel center from oozing or drying too quickly. This innovative border also minimizes slippage and offers sensor stability for improved tracings. Mini NeoLead has no natural rubber latex or plasticizer DEHP.
Preparation
Clean and dry skin per hospital protocol.
Note: It is important for skin to be as clean and dry as possible. Electrodes will not adhere properly to moist skin or hair. Oils and lotions will also adversely affect adhesion.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL.
Application
Step 1 Before removing plastic liner, hydrocolloid adhesive must be actively warmed. Warming techniques include: hold between the palms of your hands for at least 60 seconds, hold near a radiant warmer for 10-15 seconds, or hold against a chemical heel warmer for 10-15 seconds.
Step 2 One at a time, peel each lead from plastic liner, place the lead on the skin, and hold in place for 60 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.
Discard the plastic liner.
Removal
Step 1 Replace NeoLead every 5 days or per hospital protocol, whichever is sooner.
Step 2 Saturate the lead with water or saline.
Step 3 Slowly peel the lead away from the skin as you swab the skin with water or saline.
