WOUND TREATMENT DEVICE EMPLOYING NEGATIVE PRESSURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240041660 titled 'WOUND TREATMENT DEVICE EMPLOYING NEGATIVE PRESSURE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes devices and methods for wound treatment. These devices include a chamber that has an interior engineered surface with structures that create pathways for the distribution of negative pressure and exert mechanical stress on a wound. The devices and methods can be used to treat wounds on the head, neck, and face. Tubes are also included to facilitate the application of negative pressure, introduction of therapeutic agents, and removal of wound material.
