A new solution for negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in hospitalized or immobilized patients
Woundprep® is a sterile tubing set that is designed to utilize wall suction/central suction whenever NPWT is required for hospitalized patients.
Woundprep® requires a source of negative pressure ( suction ) which can be regulated between 75 to 150mm Hg strength. The source of suction should also contain a disposable canister for monitoring purposes and to prevent fluids from entering the central suction system.
Woundprep® is to be used with other primary dressings such as sterile foam or gauze and after being sealed off airtightly by film dressings is connected to a controlled amount of suction prescribed by the registered wound care provider.
Woundprep® then allows easy disconnection and reconnection should the immobilized patient need to go for special investigations. Woundprep® has a self-sealing valve that prevents fluids from running back to the wound.
Warning
Warning: Never place Woundprep® directly in contact with the patient or with the wound surface. Never use Woundprep® or any type of NPWT on actively bleeding wounds.
