Breg Polar Care Kodiak Shoulder Cold Therapy System

How to Operate Kodiak Shoulder Cold Therapy System?

• Use cubed or chunked ice for optimal performance.
• It is recommended to drain the Cold Therapy Pad between uses. To drain the pad, hold the Cold Therapy Pad upright with the hose pointed toward the ground. Depress the black plunger and allow water to drain out of the pad.
• You may disconnect the Cold Therapy Pad from the unit without removing the pad from the affected area by depressing the silver tabs on the hose coupling and gently pulling the hoses apart. The Breg Polar Care Cold Therapy Pad and unit will seal itself and will not leak.
  Note: Some dripping during release is normal.

Precautions to take while Using Polar Care Kodiak System

• Provide a complete medical history including any reactions to cold. Certain medical conditions make cold-induced injury more likely. Ask your practitioner about potential adverse reactions and cold-induced injuries

• Use only according to your practitioner’s instructions regarding the frequency and duration of cold application

• Do not let any part of the pad touch skin. Always use an insulation barrier between the Cold Therapy Pad and skin.

• Check for moisture on the barrier between your skin and the cold pad. Discontinue use if the barrier is moist. Change to a dry skin barrier before resuming use.

• Inspect the skin under the Cold Therapy Pad (by lifting the edge) as prescribed, typically every 1 to 2 hours.

The Polar Care Kodiak can be cold enough to cause serious injury, including full skin necrosis. Follow these Operating Instructions, and carefully read the Product Insert (see pouch on side of unit) and the Intelli-Flo Pad Fitting Instructions (provided with each Cold Therapy Pad) prior to use.
