| Technical Method |
The wound bed is dressed, fitted with mode of communication between the wound bed and suction apparatus, and sealed (according to labeling instructions). The suction apparatus is engaged to create a vacuum (negative pressure) within the wound bed which drives the wound exudate to be pumped from the wound bed into a collection canister or the dressing. It is designed to provide a pre-set level of negative pressure to the wound bed. The negative pressure is generated by a chemical reaction. |
| Target Area |
For management of chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds; partial-thickness burns; ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure) flaps and grafts. |
