A FOUR-PART CHECK

Read the reference before the claim.

Product-family names help discovery. Procurement, training and use decisions require the identifiers printed on the applicable label.

Reference / SKU
Match the complete identifier, including size or configuration suffix.
UDI
Use the device identifier where present; retain the production data for traceability.
Market
Confirm the label, language and availability for the intended country.
Intended purpose
Follow the current IFU for the exact reference.
Patient fit
Assess size, anatomy, wear context and care plan with the appropriate clinician.
Compatibility
Verify named components and combinations; family proximity is not proof.
Contact materials
Request the product-specific composition and allergen information when relevant.
Contact duration
Use only the duration and replacement interval stated for the reference.
Handling
Storage, preparation and disposal conditions belong to the current label or IFU.
Sterile status
Do not infer sterility or SAL from category; inspect the specific package symbols.
Single-use status
Reprocessing boundaries must follow reference-level labeling.
Lot and expiry
Keep lot and expiry visible during receipt, storage and issue.
