I have the Prevena Plus on after breast reconstruction. At times there is an electric shock that goes down my leg. It is very painful. I either move wrong or a nearby other electrical device is causing an issue. I’m not sure. Can you advise? I **** going to Dr. today to have removed as a regular appt anyways, but I’d like to unplug it now.

The Acelity KCI PREVENA PLUS 125 Therapy Unit will stop running when the alert condition caused by the suction tube being pulled off is corrected. Check for a blockage or leak at the tubing connectors and press firmly to secure them. If the issue persists, contact your doctor or nurse. If the therapy has completed its seven-day duration, the unit will shut off automatically.
