What is it indicated for?
The Avance NPWT system, with associated products, are indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device
(negative pressure wound therapy), as it may promote wound healing via the removal of fluids, including irrigation and
body fluids, wound exudate and infectious materials. Examples of appropriate wound types include: chronic, acute,
traumatic, sub-acute and dehisced wounds, ulcers (such as pressure or diabetic), partial-thickness burns, flaps and grafts.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
