The V.A. C.U/ta Negat/ve Pressure Wound Therapy System is an integrated wound management system that provides Negative Pressure Wound Therapy with an instillation option.
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in the absence of instillation is intended to create an environment that promotes wound healing by secondary or tertiary (delayed primary) intention by preparing the wound bed for closure, reducing edema, promoting granulation tissue formation and perfusion, and by removing exudt and infetius materia
The instillation option is indicated for patients who would benefit from vacuum assisted drainage and controlled delivery of topical wound treatment solutions and suspensions over the wound bed.
The V.A. C.U/ta Tm Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System with and without instillation is indicated for patients with chronic, acute, traumatic, sub-acute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as dia6etic, pressure and venous insufficiency), flaps and grafts.
