The POCD in its preferred form is composed of a semi-pliable material suitable for human use in the shape of a cylindrical cup and placed to encompass the circumcised penis. The POCD is to be applied post-operatively before the patient applies clothing to reduce the possibility of externalities injuring or discomforting the circumcised penis. A disposable POCD is to be replaced four times daily or after each bath for up to five days after the date of circumcision or as suggested by the physician or surgeon. A non-disposable POCD can be used and must be disinfected four times daily or after each bath.

Abstract: Method of using a disposable neonatal circumcision device that secures the foreskin of the penis in a precise location, applies radially circumferential clamping, and delivers a longitudinal circumferential cutting device along the path precisely controlled by the device itself, not the operator, ensuring the incision to the clamped foreskin is made in the precise location, independent of the operator.
