- the fluid restrictions 220 may comprise substantially closed fenestrations through the first layer
- a pressure gradient across the fenestrations can strain the adjacent material of the first layer 205 and increase the dimensions of and/or deform the fenestrations to allow liquid movement through them, similar to the operation of a duckbill valve. Opening the fluid restrictions 220 can allow exudate and other liquid movement through the fluid restrictions
- the first layer 205 and the third layer 705 can also substantially reduce or prevent exposure of tissue to the second layer 210, which can inhibit growth of tissue into the second layer 210. Deformation of the first layer 205 may occur to a greater extent at a central portion than at a peripheral zone, which may allow a greater volume of fluid to flow through the fluid restrictions 220 or the fenestrations 400. [00112] In some embodiments, by mixing the occurrence of the perforations
- fluid flow may be more readily controlled to increase the flow of fluid in the central zone of the dressing 104, while restricting fluid back flow.
- the higher valving functionality of the peripheral zone which is more likely to cover a periwound or intact skin, may reduce fluid reflux and the risk of maceration.
- the tendency of a higher flow and/or lower pressure drop over the central zone of the dressing may encourage fluid to be drawn away from the dressing perimeter.
- the perforations and the fenestrations may reduce a risk of fluid arriving at and/or lingering at a periwound or intact skin zone.
- a filler may also be disposed between a tissue site and the third layer 705.
- a tissue site is a surface wound
- a wound filler may be applied interior to the periwound
- the third layer 705 may be disposed over the periwound and the wound filler.
- the filler may be a manifold, such as an open-cell foam.
- the filler may comprise or consist essentially of the same material as the second layer 210 in some embodiments.
- instillation solution or other fluid may be distributed to the dressing 104, which can increase the pressure in the tissue interface 114.
- the increased pressure in the tissue interface 114 can create a positive pressure differential across the fluid restrictions 220 in the first layer 205, which can open the fluid restrictions 220 to allow the instillation solution or other fluid to be distributed to a tissue site.
- Figure 14 is a schematic section view of an example manifold that may be associated with some embodiments of the second layer 210.
- the manifold may be a fluid management assembly 1402, which may include a first wicking layer 1404, a second wicking layer 1406, and optionally an absorbent 1408.

- the array of interconnected ovules may include corner ovules 1504, edge ovules 1506, and optionally but preferably at least one central ovule 1508.
- the array may contain about 50 rows and about 50 columns, but it should be understood that the array may be of any reasonable size and may comprise any number of rows and any number of columns sufficient to assist in treating a tissue site.
- At least a portion of the interconnected ovules may include one or more grooves on an outer surface of each ovule that extend at least partially in a direction of its longest principal axis.
- each groove may have an average depth no more than 30% of a diameter of each interconnected ovule along a principal axis direction other than the longest principal axis.
- at least a portion of the interconnected ovules may have an external texture, whether in relief or counter-relief, which may be systematic or random, such as texture patterns commercially available from Standex Int'l. Ltd. of London, England.
- portions of the ellipsoidal surfaces of the interconnected ovules forming the upper surface of the array, the lower surface of the array, or both, can be desirable, in some embodiments, for portions of the ellipsoidal surfaces of the interconnected ovules forming the upper surface of the array, the lower surface of the array, or both, to protrude above/below portions defining the fluid pathways through the array.
- one or more of the sizes of, the shapes of, and the component materials making up the interconnected ovules and defining the fluid pathways therebetween may be tailored to allow negative pressure to be communicated across the array, such as through the fluid pathways without complete collapse under applied negative pressure.
- the second layer 1500 may optionally comprise one or more additional materials.
- optional components may include, for example, active materials such as preservatives, stabilizing agents, plasticizers, matrix strengthening materials, dyestuffs, and combinations thereof.
- Such optional components may additionally or alternatively include passive materials, for example in situations when ex vivo detection may be important, such as a sufficient amount of magnetic, metal, or ceramic material to allow ready ex vivo detection, such as via an x-ray or MRI apparatus.
- the second layer 1500 may comprise one or more additional active materials, for example, antimicrobial agents that may be effective to aid in tissue healing.
- the second layer 210 may comprise or consist essentially of the manifold 1500. Additionally or alternatively, the manifold 1500 may be combined with other manifold structures, other functional layers, or both in the second layer 210.
- Figure 16 is a partial view of another example of a manifold that may be associated with some embodiments of the second layer 210.
- Figure 16 illustrates a manifold having protrusions 1604 extending from a substrate 1606.
- the shape of the protrusions 1604 may be substantially cylindrical.
- the cross-sectional shape of the protrusions 1604 may be square, rectangular, triangular, polygonal, elliptical, or any other suitable shape.
- the protrusions 1604 may be tapered or of uniform cross-sectional area throughout.
- the height, H, of the protrusions 1604 is preferably between about 0.1 and 5.0 millimeters, and more preferably about 2 millimeters.
- the width, W, of each protrusion is between about 0.1 and 2.0 millimeters, and more preferably about 0.25 to 0.5 millimeters.
- the width of the protrusions 1604 may equal that of the diameter since the cross- sectional shape of each protrusion 1604 is circular. If the protrusions 1604 are square in cross-sectional shape, the width of the protrusions 1604 are an edge length of the square. For other cross-sectional shapes, the width is the average of the longest lateral distance through the centroid of the cross section and the shortest lateral distance through the centroid of the cross section.
- the lateral, center-to-center spacing between each protrusion 1604 is preferably between about 0.1 and 1.0 millimeters, and more preferably about 0.5 millimeters.
- the presence and sizing of the protrusions 1604 can allow the protrusions 1604 to distribute reduced pressure to the tissue site, but can substantially reduce or prevent new tissue that grows at the tissue site from attaching to the protrusions 1604 of the second layer 1600.
- new tissue may not be able to wrap around the walls that form the pores or cells. While new tissue may grow into the field of protrusions 1604 and may even wrap around some of the protrusions 1604, the new tissue may not be capable of securing itself to the protrusions 1604 since the base of each protrusion is anchored to the backing substrate 1606.
- the second layer 210 may comprise or consist essentially of a manifold having protrusions 1604. Additionally or alternatively, the protrusions 1604 may be combined with other manifold structures, other functional layers, or both in the second layer 210.
- the systems, apparatuses, and methods described herein may provide significant advantages.
- the dressing 104 is simple to apply without customization or special skills, which can reduce the time to apply and remove the dressing
- the dressing 104 may be a fully-integrated negative-pressure therapy dressing that can be applied to a tissue site (including on the periwound) in one step, without being cut to size, while still providing or improving many benefits of other negative- pressure therapy dressings that require sizing.
- benefits may include good manifolding, beneficial granulation, protection of the peripheral tissue from maceration, protection of the tissue site from shedding materials, and a low-trauma and high-seal bond.
- the wound may be granulated while reducing opportunity for in-growth of granulation tissue into the manifold. These characteristics may be particularly advantageous for surface wounds having moderate depth and medium-to-high levels of exudate.
- the dressing 104 may provide macro-stain to edges of a tissue site, and may substantially reduce or prevent maceration of peripheral tissue.
- the dressing 104 may conform to and within a significant wound space.
- Some embodiments of the dressing 104 may remain on the tissue site for at least 5 days, and some embodiments may remain for at least 7 days.
- Antimicrobial agents in the dressing 104 may extend the usable life of the dressing 104 by reducing or eliminating infection risks that may be associated with extended use, particularly use with infected or highly exuding wounds.
- Felted foam may allow for a reduced profile of the dressing 104 in some embodiments, which may improve conformability.
- a biopolymer such as ORC collagen, may additionally impart the benefits of the biopolymer.
- Some embodiments may allow for fluid to be absorbed at a tissue site, and some embodiments may have a greater area behind the film layers to allow for greater valve movement.
- some embodiments may provide a means to reduce biofilm and bacterial build-up within the dressing structure.
- Components may be also be combined or eliminated in various configurations for purposes of sale, manufacture, assembly, or use.
- the dressing 104, the container 106, or both may be separated from other components for manufacture or sale.
- components of the dressing 104 may also be manufactured, configured, assembled, or sold independently or as a kit.
