When Celeste Bell was declared free of anal cancer a few years ago, she was left with a painful reminder from the more than 30 radiation and chemotherapy treatments that cured her: a large, open wound (measuring 4 cm x 5 cm) that was very tender, difficult to keep clean, and remained chronic. Early in 2014, the recent retiree found herself spending most of her time at Briarwood Health Care Center in Denver instead of gardening, attending ballgames, and spending hours on end with her grandchildren – as she would have hoped.

Chronic wounds continue to challenge clinicians from Day 1 as the race to make timely progress begins. As we know, “time is tissue.” Of course, not all wounds heal with time. It’s what we (clinician and patient) do during the time we have that really matters.

The use of dressings to treat chronic wounds dates back to ancient times. But as we all well know that time does not truly heal all wounds, and certainly not chronic wounds, we also know that not all dressings heal all wounds. It’s what we do with the wound during the time that we have that is of upmost importance.

Modern wound care has increased substantially, both in volume and complexity. To help address the spike in demand, there has been a concomitant advancement in both products and devices that are aimed at improving wound treatment. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has enjoyed a significant increase in use, and the devices employed have become more refined over time. There has been substantial debate over the efficacy of these devices, with publications often finding the data inconclusive.1 Recent meta-analyses, however, have shown NPWT to be an effective treatment for chronic wounds.1 In addition to its impact on wound healing, control of exudate, ease of wound care, maintenance of appropriate wound moisture, and device portability have all added to the desirability of NPWT in the wound clinic. As wound care itself continues to evolve as a science, new devices and dressings are arriving that offer additional benefits to patient care. Mechanically powered NPWT represents a fresh take on NPWT, with its own unique advantages. This article reflects on the progress we have seen in NPWT in general and compares the usage of electrical and mechanical NPWT, which should be considered as yet another tool within the wound care practitioner’s armamentarium.
