See how clinicians used V.A.C.® Peel and Place Dressing with negative pressure wound therapy over proximal midline and abdominal wound sites. This case study details the dressing application, treatment progression, patient outcomes, and clinician experiences.
Key Clinical Highlights:
-
Rapid Application: Reduced dressing application time to approximately 90 seconds by eliminating the need for custom cutting around complex abdominal contours.
-
Accelerated Time to Healing: Achieved near-complete closure of a dehisced midline wound and colostomy reversal site after just 12 days of therapy across two clinic visits.
-
Proximity Management: Successfully bridged medial/lateral surgical sites and accommodated an adjacent surgical drain without seal loss or disrupting the chlorhexidine patch.
