Sterile, ready to use kit comes with all the necessary components to repair 4 ears.

Use a marker to outline the hematoma on the medial surface of the ear flap

Make an elliptical incision to drain blood and remove fibrin.

Remove a couple of millimeters of skin along the incision site to prevent rapid sealing of the incision

Scrape the inner surfaces of the hematoma to freshen

Place a fenestrated pad on each side of the ear flap, securing pads to the ear with towel clamps

Pass the needle through the pad on the incision (medial) side of the ear continuing through the ear and lateral pad

Insert the tip of the Quick Clip into the needle and pass back through

Place a locking ring on the shaft of the clip leaving 1mm of space between the ring and the pad to allow for swelling

Continue this procedure over the entire surface and into the edge of the healthy tissue

Reinforce the clips by adding a second locking ring for security

Trim off excessive shaft of the clips ¼” from the locking rings

No bandage is necessary

To secure the ear over the head, suture the optional attachment button to the top of the head

Pass the barrel of the button through the slot in the top of the ear pads. This method allows the ear to be easily taken down for inspection or treatment

To remove the clips, use scissors to cut off the head of the clip. Grasp the ring and pull through. No sedation is generally necessary.
