Negative Pressure Wound Therapy

摘要

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) is frequently used as an adjunct to the management of acute and chronic wounds. NPWT generally utilizes a foam/dressing interface attached to the surrounding skin with a drape connected to a suction source through a flexible tube. This device is used to draw tissues together and remove wound exudate. There have been numerous innovations and novel approaches to the original design, utilized extensively for over 30 years. 

Despite its widespread adoption and numerous publications, this is the first comprehensive book on these popular therapies. The technology and mechanisms of action are presented in detail, followed by its application in a variety of nonsurgical/surgical settings, from many specialties. This text will be of great interest to multiple surgical, medical, nursing and physical therapy disciplines, including clinicians involved in soft tissue reconstruction, elective and non-elective surgery, and conservative wound care.
