An apparatus and method for aspirating, irrigating and/or cleansing wounds is provided. The apparatus and method include one or more of the following: simultaneous aspiration and irrigation of the wound, supplying of thermal energy to fluid circulated through the wound; supplying physiologically active agents to the wound; a biodegradable scaffold in contact with the wound bed; and application of stress or flow stress to the wound bed.

A wound therapy system includes a negative pressure circuit, a pump, a pressure sensor, and a controller. The negative pressure circuit applies negative pressure to a wound. The pump is fluidly coupled to the negative pressure circuit and produces a negative pressure at the wound or within the negative pressure circuit. The pressure sensor measures the negative pressure within the negative pressure circuit or the wound. The controller performs a testing procedure including a first drawdown period, a leak rate determination period, a vent period, and a second drawdown period. The controller is configured to receive one or more pressure measurements of the pressure sensor over the leak rate determination period to determine a leak rate parameter, monitor an amount of elapsed time over the second drawdown period to determine a drawdown parameter, and estimate a volume of the wound based on the leak rate parameter and the drawdown parameter.

The present disclosure belongs to the field of treatment devices, and specifically relates to a medicated thread drainage treatment device. The treatment device includes a first treatment unit used for postoperative pain relief and drainage; a second treatment unit used for promoting quick healing of a wound; a third treatment unit used for preventing deep venous thrombosis; and an electropneumatic, negative-pressure, electric stimulation multipurpose therapy apparatus connected with the first treatment unit, the second treatment unit, and the third treatment unit and providing electropneumatic pressure, negative pressure, and electric energy. The present disclosure is used for postoperative quick healing and recovery; promotion of clinical use guidelines will greatly reduce and even eliminate the postoperative complications, particularly postoperative complications of pulmonary embolism, thus saving patients' lives.

A dressing includes a first manifold layer, a second manifold layer, a first barrier layer coupled to the first manifold layer, a second barrier layer coupled to the second manifold layer, a first fenestrated film layer coupled to the first manifold layer, and a second fenestrated film layer coupled to the second manifold layer. The first manifold layer and the second manifold layer are positioned between the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer. The first fenestrated film layer and the second fenestrated film layer are positioned between the first manifold layer and the second manifold layer.

A dressing includes a barrier film layer, a wound contact layer coupled to the barrier film layer, and a plurality of felted foam strips positioned between the barrier film layer and the wound contact layer. Each strip provides a manifolding pathway. The barrier film layer and the wound contact layer include a central region and a plurality of peninsular projections extending therefrom in the shape of a hand.

In an example is a system for providing treatment to a tissue site. The system may include a tissue interface for transporting fluid to the tissue site. The system may further include a cover for providing a sealed space including the tissue interface. The system may further include a negative-pressure source fluidly coupled to the tissue interface and providing negative pressure. The system may further include a hyperoxic fluid source fluidly coupled to the tissue interface and providing a hyperoxic fluid. The system may further include a controller for controlling the negative pressure and the hyperoxic fluid so as to maintain the sealed space at a negative pressure while the hyperoxic fluid is provided to the sealed space.

Foam wound inserts with high-density and low-density regions, methods for making wound inserts, wound-treatment methods, and wound-treatment systems.

A liquid-collection canister includes a liquid collection chamber defined by at least one wall and a first and second gas-communication pathway formed within the at least one wall. A first aperture is positioned between the first gas-communication pathway and the liquid collection chamber to allow gaseous communication between the liquid collection chamber and the first gas-communication pathway. A second aperture is positioned between the second gas-communication pathway and the liquid collection chamber to allow gaseous communication between the liquid collection chamber and the second gas-communication pathway. A first and a second liquid-air separator are positioned over the first aperture and the second aperture, respectively, to substantially prevent liquid passing through the first and second apertures.

A dressing (2) and an apparatus (1) comprising the dressing, for cleansing the wounds (5) in which an irrigant fluid from a reservoir (12) connected to a conformable would dressing and would exudate from the dressing are moved by a device (18) (which may be a single pump or two pumps) for moving fluid through a flow Path (6, 7, 9, 10) which passes through the dressing with a means for providing simultaneous aspiration and irrigation of the wound, to provide a desired balance of fluid at a controlled nominal flow rate that removes materials deleterious to wound healing, while distributing materials that are beneficial in promoting would healing over the wound bed.

Systems and methods for delivery of fluid to a wound therapy dressing. In exemplary embodiments, a pressure sensor measures the pressure at the wound therapy dressing and restricts fluid flow to the wound therapy dressing when a predetermined pressure is achieve.
