PICO Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (negative pressure wound therapy) as it may promote wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials. PICO Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Systems are suitable for use both in a hospital and homecare setting. Appropriate wound types include:

• Chronic

• Acute

• Traumatic

• Subacute and dehisced wounds

• Partial-thickness burns

• Ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure)

• Flaps and grafts

• Closed surgical incisions

When used on closed surgical incisions, PICO Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of:

• Superficial and deep incisional surgical site infections for high risk patients in Class I and Class II wounds

• Post-operative seroma

• Dehiscence

Note: When used on closed incisions for the reduction of SSI, the safety and effectiveness for Class III (contaminated) and Class IV (Dirty/Infected) wounds have not been demonstrated. Furthermore, Class IV surgical wounds are not expected to be closed primarily. The device has not been demonstrated to reduce organ space surgical site infections. The device is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of, but not treat, seroma, dehiscence, or infected wounds - the use of PICO does not preclude the need to develop and follow a comprehensive infection management protocol.

PICO 7 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (negative pressure wound therapy) as it may promote wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials. PICO 7 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Systems are suitable for use both in a hospital and homecare setting. Appropriate wound types include:

• Chronic

• Acute

• Traumatic

• Subacute and dehisced wounds

• Partial-thickness burns

• Ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure)

When used on closed surgical incisions, PICO 7 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of:

• Superficial and deep incisional surgical site infections for high risk patients in Class I and Class II wounds

• Post-operative seroma

• Dehiscence

Note: When used on closed incisions for the reduction of SSI, the safety and effectiveness for Class III (contaminated) and Class IV (Dirty/Infected) wounds have not been demonstrated. Furthermore, Class IV surgical wounds are not expected to be closed primarily. The device has not been demonstrated to reduce organ space surgical site infections. The device is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of, but not treat, seroma, dehiscence, or infected wounds - the use of PICO does not preclude the need to develop and follow a comprehensive infection management protocol.

PICO 7Y Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (negative pressure wound therapy) as it may promote wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials. PICO 7Y Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Systems are suitable for use both in a hospital and homecare setting. Appropriate wound types include:

• Chronic

• Acute

• Traumatic

• Subacute and dehisced wounds

• Partial-thickness burns

• Ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure)

• Flaps and grafts

• Closed surgical incisions

When used on closed surgical incisions, PICO 7Y Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of:

• Superficial incisional surgical site infections for high risk patients in Class I wounds

• Post-operative seroma

• Dehiscence

Note: When used on closed incisions for the reduction of SSI, the safety and effectiveness for Class II (Clean/Contaminated), Class III (contaminated) and Class IV (Dirty/Infected) wounds have not been demonstrated. Furthermore, Class IV surgical wounds are not expected to be closed primarily. The device has not been demonstrated to reduce organ space surgical site infections. The device is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of, but not treat, seroma, dehiscence, or infected wounds - the use of PICO does not preclude the need to develop and follow a comprehensive infection management protocol.

• Closed surgical incisions

When used on closed surgical incisions for up to 7 days, PICO 14 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy is intended to aid in reducing the incidence of:

• Superficial and deep incisional surgical site infections for high risk patients in Class I and Class II wounds

• Post-operative seroma

• Dehiscence

Note: When used on closed incisions for the reduction of SSI, the safety and effectiveness for Class III (contaminated) and Class IV (Dirty/Infected) wounds have not been demonstrated. Furthermore, Class IV surgical wounds are not expected to be closed primarily. The device has not been demonstrated to reduce organ space surgical site infections.
