The PhaSeal products are packed in sterile packages. There is no need to swab the membranes before the first use, providing aseptic technique is used. The membranes can be wiped with alcohol, e.g. isopropanol (IPA) pads or swab sticks before reusing the port. Follow the local procedure for parenteral administration in your hospital.
