TREATMENT PROCEDURE
1 Refer to dose timing chart for individual
lesion types and dosage times.
2 Insert appropriate bud (arrow or round)
into canister’s trigger nozzle.
3 Remove safety cap from actuator
4 Push dispensing valve for approximately 3-6
seconds to saturate bud until drips
are visible. Do not press valve
while CryoDose H applicator is in
contact with patient’s skin.
5 Remove bud from canister, and
point downward (for approximately
15-20 seconds) for bud to reach
optimal -55°C freezing temperature.
6 Precisely place dosage bud onto patient’s
treatment area and hold for recommended
time (see chart).
7 Allow 45-60 seconds for thawing process to
be completed before touching lesion.
If desired, after thaw is completed,
a second freeze may be administered.
TREATMENT OVERVIEW
Keratin is highly insulating, so when treating
a thick lesion, achieving subzero tempera-
tures at the base may be challenging. For
increased efficacy, before freezing, consider
debriding keratin with curette, scalpel, or
pumice stone. Preparatory steps can impact
treatment efficacy and reduce number of
applications required.
• Functional and cosmetic end results have
priority over cure rates. If in doubt, under
treat. To ensure successful cure rate,
retreatment at a later date is preferable
to overtreating.
• Saturated 2mm applicator
retains cold for approximately
90 seconds; 5mm applicator
retains cold for approximately
120 seconds – sufficient time
to perform 1 to 2 applications
on a patient.
• A small ring of healthy tissue around lesion
should also be frozen during treatment.
• Freezing starts in seconds. A white discol-
oration of treated skin may be observed.
Patient may experience tingling or pruritus,
and possibly a brief smarting sensation.
• After removing applicator, white ‘frost’ der-
mal coloration will recede within minutes
and erythema will appear, the same size
as frozen region. Any discomfort experi-
enced during freezing typically ends shortly
following treatment.
• Blistering (potentially blood-filled) may be
anticipated in subsequent days, possibly
not visible macroscopically on treatment
areas exhibiting a thick stratum corneum.
PAIN MANAGEMENT
Cryotherapy patients experience a subjec-
tive degree of discomfort – a moderately
painful, burning sensation on the skin.
Treatment acceptance can be significantly
improved by articulating treatment impli-
cations to patients: any required prepara-
tory treatment, anticipated level of pain,
possible undesirable effects, potential
need for follow-up treatment(s), and how
resolution rates are impacted by location
and size of warts.
POST-PROCEDURAL CARE
• Keep treated area of skin clean.
• Swimming and showering are permitted.
• Do not scratch or pick treated area.
• If blisters form, do not lance; if blisters open,
cover with adhesive bandage
