Infection through colonisation of medical devices or acute wounds can lead to biofilm formation, delayed wound healing and development of chronic wounds. Biofilms are difficult to treat d...
Introduction: Engineered dermal templates are commonly used to treat extensive skin loss, but because of insufficient vascularization, they often fail to support epidermal grafts and are ...
Abstract Body: Introduction Clinical studies have shown that appropriate delivery of ciNPT reduced the incidence of seroma and superficial site infections in patients at high risk for pos...
Blockages occurring in NPWT systems can prevent deliverance of target negative pressure to the wound site. Blockage indication in NPWT systems is important in mitigating factors that can ...
Dressings that are easy to use and gentle to the periwound area continue to be a significant unmet need in wound care. A novel drape containing composite adhesives—i.e., both acrylic and ...
Introduction: Temporary abdominal closure using a visceral protective layer and controlled negative pressure delivered through a reticulated open cell foam has become the standard of care...
Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) with a reticulated open cell foam (ROCF) has dramatically impacted the practice of healing wounds. While effective in stimulating granulation tissue...
While reticulated open cell foam (ROCF) is a well-established dressing for use with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), tissue ingrowth may occur if the dressing is left in place for ...
