Abstract: The Use of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy in Skin-Containing Free Tissue Transfer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Suday, O cber 8, 2017 Development of infection was associated with longer periods from initiation of NPWT use to definitive soft tissue coverage (p<0.01); this finding was independent of time from injury to soft tissue coverage but correlated with number of operations. Limb salvage rate was 95.9% and 50.0% of patient could ambulate without an assistance device 3 or more months out of surgery.

An algorithmic approach to the use of gauze-based negative-pressure wound therapy as a bridge to closure in pediatric extremity trauma.
BACKGROUND The efficacy of negative-pressure wound therapy as a bridge to definitive closure of traumatic extremity wounds has been demonstrated in adults. Gauze-based negative-pressure wound therapy has been used to facilitate granulation tissue formation and promote closure in a number of wound types. In this study, the authors evaluated the efficacy of gauze-based negative-pressure wound the...

متن کاملReconstruction of massive full‐thickness abdominal wall defect: successful treatment with nonabsorbable mesh, negative pressure wound therapy, and split‐skin grafting
We demonstrate that it is possible to use a nonabsorbable mesh for abdominal wall reconstruction after total wound rupture and successfully split-skin graft directly on the mesh. Sufficient granulation tissue formation prior to skin grafting was obtained with long-term use of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT).
