Definitions
- the invention generally relates to wound therapy and in particular to wound dressings and to special application forms of wound dressings for wound therapy.
- Negative wound therapy also known as topical negative pressure (TNP), negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) or vacuum assisted closure (VAC), has long been recognized, but has been particularly prevalent since the mid-term / Late 1990s increasingly used.
- TNP topical negative pressure
- NPWT negative pressure wound therapy
- VAC vacuum assisted closure
- a wound filling material is usually inserted into the wound, the wound area is covered with a foil and a negative pressure is generated in the wound space by means of a drainage tube and a vacuum pump.
- the negative pressure causes effective wound cleansing by removing wound exudate.
- Further advantages include promotion of granulation tissue formation and reduction of wound edema formation.
- VAC As the name VAC already suggests, the negative pressure therapy is usually carried out until the wound is closed. Wound closure is generally considered to be achieved when there is a layer of epidermis over the former wound site. Wound closure can be achieved through healing processes or through surgical procedures.

- the inflammatory phase usually occurs immediately after wound formation. It is characterized by vascular constriction, activation of the coagulation cascade and complex immunological processes. The release of chemoattractive substances (eg chemokines) can cause a local inflammatory reaction. There are four main signs of inflammation: edema, exudation, redness and pain. The surrounding vessels can expand and inflammatory cells migrate into the site of inflammation. These can eliminate microorganisms and tissue necroses. This can be done a cleaning of the wound. In the subsequent proliferation or granulation phase, new tissue is created with vascular grafting and defect filling by granulation tissue. This is the basic requirement for later epithelization.
