Philadelphia Liner sizes are identical to Philadelphia Collar sizes. The Liner form fits both the Original and Tracheotomy designs.


Application:
For proper fit, the Liner label and central seam should be parallel to the plastic reinforcement. This application is identical for both the FRONT and BACK pieces.

Each Liner is individually designed to fit securely on the Philadelphia Collar. After matching the Liner size to the corresponding Collar size, insert the Collar into the Liner as demonstrated below.

After the Liner FRONT and BACK pieces are secured on the Collar FRONT and BACK pieces, apply the Collar to the patient.
1.
Align the top end of the Collar with the upper edge of the Liner seam. Insert the Collar into the Liner.
2.
Simply follow around the edge of the Collar with the Liner seam. The seam should finish at the opposite end of the Collar.
3. With both hands, place the top portion of the Liner over the Collar. Complete by tucking the label under the Liner.
4. Once the Liner is secured onto the Collar, follow the Collar application instructions, as provided by a qualified healthcare professional.


Removal:


Before removing the Collar, mark the position of the Velcro strap location to ensure re-application maintains the proper fit.

With the Collar secured on the patient, unfasten the Velcro strap on the RIGHT side and then the LEFT side. Remove the Collar from the patient. Remove Liner in a similar manner as it was applied.



Cleaning:


Proper hygiene and product cleaning are an important part of a patient's recovery. In addition, it will keep the patient clean, comfortable and prevent skin irritation. A qualified healthcare professional will establish your cleaning routine.

After the Collar is removed, gently clean the patient's neck and face; if there is skin irritation contact a qualified healthcare professional. The patient's neck and face should be dried completely before the Collar is applied.

The entire Liner and Collar can be cleaned with mild soap and clean water. The Liner and Collar should be dried completely with a cloth or air-dried before they are applied to the patient. While a mild disinfectant is acceptable, do not use harsh chemicals or bleach.

Apply the Liner and Collar as instructed by a qualified healthcare professional.
