Step-by-Step Guide to Activating a Chlorhexidine Applicator

Etapa 1: Prepare the Area

Before activating your chlorhexidine applicator, ensure the area where it will be applied is clean and dry. Remove any visible dirt or debris to maximize the effectiveness of the antiseptic.

Etapa 2: Remove the Applicator from Its Packaging

Carefully open the packaging of the chlorhexidine applicator. Avoid touching the applicator tip to maintain its sterility. Dispose of the packaging responsibly.

Etapa 3: Activate the Applicator

Most chlorhexidine applicators require a simple activation process:

1. Hold the applicator upright: Make sure the applicator is vertical, with the solution reservoir at the bottom.

2. Crush the inner ampoule: Squeeze the applicator to crush the inner ampoule containing the chlorhexidine solution. You may hear a snapping sound.

3. Allow the solution to saturate the applicator tip: Once the ampoule is crushed, the solution will flow into the applicator tip. Wait a few seconds to ensure the tip is fully saturated.

Etapa 4: Apply the Chlorhexidine Solution

Gently apply the saturated applicator tip to the intended area. Use a back-and-forth motion to ensure even coverage. Avoid excessive pressure to prevent skin irritation.

Etapa 5: Dispose of the Applicator

After use, immediately dispose of the applicator in a designated medical waste container. Do not attempt to reuse the applicator.
