Definitions
- Embodiments or arrangements disclosed herein relate to methods and apparatuses for dressing and treating a wound with topical negative pressure (TNP) therapy.
- TNP topical negative pressure
- any embodiments disclosed herein may relate to treating a wound with reduced pressure provided from a pump kit.
- TNP therapy sometimes referred to as vacuum assisted closure, negative pressure wound therapy, or reduced pressure wound therapy, is widely recognized as a beneficial mechanism for improving the healing rate of a wound.
- Such therapy is applicable to a broad range of wounds such as incisional wounds, open wounds and abdominal wounds or the like.
- TNP therapy assists in the closure and healing of wounds by reducing tissue edema; encouraging blood flow; stimulating the formation of granulation tissue; removing excess exudates, and may reduce bacterial load and thus reduce the potential for infection of the wound. Furthermore, TNP therapy permits less outside disturbance of the wound and promotes more rapid healing.
- Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for wound treatment.
- Some of the wound treatment apparatuses described herein comprise a pump system or assembly for providing negative pressure to a wound site.
- Wound treatment apparatuses may also comprise wound dressings that may be used in combination with the pump assemblies described herein, and connectors for connecting the wound dressings to the pump assemblies.

- the wound exudate can be drawn into the canister 160 through a canister inlet
- the canister inlet 161 can be connected to the wound by a flow path (e.g., tubing) that extends from the canister inlet 161 to a wound dressing (not shown) positioned over a wound.
- the pump assembly 150 can be disconnected from the canister 160 and can operate in a cansiterless mode in which the pump assembly draws wound exudate into an absorbent dressing positioned over the wound and in fluid communication with the pump assembly 150 without having a separate canister positioned there between.
- the pump assembly 150 can include a strap anchor 159. The pump assembly 150 can be suspended from a strap (not shown) attached to the strap anchor 159, for example, when the pump assembly is utilized without the canister 160.
- FIG. 2 shows the pump assembly 150 slid back to disengage the pump assembly 150 from the canister 160.
- the pump assembly 150 can include a pump connector 152 located at a front or forward side of the pump assembly.
- the pump connector 152 can be adapted to form a fluidic connection with a canister connector 162.
- the pump connector 152 can also be adapted to form a fluidic seal with a connector that is coupled directly to an absorbent wound dressing (not shown), allowing the TNP system 100 to operate in a canister or canisterless mode.
- the pump assembly 150 creates a negative pressure within the canister 160 by drawing air out of the canister 160 through the canister connector 162 and into the pump assembly 150 through the pump connector 152. As described below, the pump assembly 150 vents to the air space surrounding the pump assembly 150 the air that has been drawn from the canister 160.

- the channel 172 can extend from the exhaust feed 174 rearwardly to a backside surface 153 of the pump assembly 150, providing a flow path for pump exhaust to flow from the exhaust feed 174 to the airspace that surrounds the pump assembly 150.
- the pump assembly 150 can include one or more housing anchors 155 that secure together the upper housing 182 and the lower housing 184.
- the pump assembly 150 can have a housing anchor 155 disposed in the channel 172 of the exhaust vent 170. In some arrangements, the pump assembly 150 does not have a housing anchor 155 disposed in the channel 172.
- Figure 4 is a side view of the pump assembly 150 with the upper housing 182 disassembled from the lower housing 184 in order to show the internal components of the pump assembly 150.
- the pump assembly 150 can have a negative pressure source 190 that is fluidically connected to the pump connector 152.
- the negative pressure source 190 can draw air through the connector 152 and into the negative pressure source 190.
- the pump assembly 150 can be arranged so that the negative pressure source 190 vents to the airspace outside of the casing of the pump assembly 150.

- Figure 5 is a backside view of the pump assembly 150, i.e., a view of the surface that is opposite of the pump connector 152 (shown in Figure 2), when the pump assembly is releasably connected to the canister 160.
- the pump assembly 150 and the canister 160 can form a seam 165 between one another when the pump assembly 150 is mounted onto the canister 160.
- the exhaust vent 170 is located on a canister facing surface of the pump assembly, such that a pump-facing surface of the canister 160 at least partially covers the exhaust vent 170.
- the pump-facing surface of the canister 160 that at least partially covers the exhaust vent 170 is preferably flat, thereby giving the channel 172 a planar shape with a flat lower surface when the pump assembly 150 is connected to the canister 160.
- the channel 172 will have a similar planar shape with a flat lower surface.
- the exhaust vent 170 because the channel 172 is recessed relative to surrounding portions of the bottom surface of the lower housing, the exhaust vent 170 includes an exit opening 171 disposed at the seam 165 that opens to the backside surface 153 of the pump assembly 150. As illustrated, the exit opening 171 may have a rectangular shape.

- Figure 7 is a side cross-sectional view of the lower housing 184 of the pump assembly 150.
- the lower housing 184 can have a connector port opening 186 through which the pump connector 152 (shown in Figure 4) extends.
- Figure 7 illustrates that the exhaust feed 174 can be arranged as a hollow tube that provides a flow path across the lower housing 184.
- the exhaust feed 174 can provide a flow path from the internal space of the pump assembly 150 to the channel 172 of the exhaust vent 170.
- the channel 172 can extend from the vent outlet 174 to a backside surface 153 of the lower housing 184.
- Figure 8 is a canister-side view of the lower housing 184 of the pump assembly 150.
- the channel 172 can have an elongate shape that extends generally from the exhaust feed 174 rearwardly to a back surface of the casing.
- the channel 172 can have a width 176 that extends from a lateral side of the channel 172 to a medial side of the channel 172.
- the width 176 of the channel 172 expands as the channel 172 extends from the exhaust feed 174 to the backside edge 183 of the lower housing 184.
- the channel 172 can have a proximal portion 173 and a distal portion 175.
- the proximal portion 173 has a width 176 that is smaller than the width 176 of the distal portion 175.
- FIG 9 is a backside view of the canister-facing surface of the lower housing 184.
- the pump assembly 150 can have a central rail portion 156 that is positioned over a bed portion 166 of the canister 160 when the pump assembly 150 is connected to the canister 160.
- the rail portion 156 of the pump assembly is disposed between a pair of wing portions 158, as shown in Figure 5.
- the bed portion 166 of the canister 160 is disposed between a pair of rail portions 168.
- the lower housing 184 can be contoured to form the rail portion 156 and the wing portions 158 of the pump assembly 150.
- the channel 172 can be disposed on the canister-facing surface 188 of the lower housing 184. As shown in Figure 9, the channel 172 can be disposed entirely within the rail portion 156 of the lower housing 184.
- the channel 172 can sit on top of the pump-facing surface of the bed portion 166 (see, e.g., Figure 5) of the canister 160.
- the channel 172 can form a planar chamber as a sort of plenum chamber through which the pump exhaust is conveyed from the exhaust feed 174 to the exit opening 171 (shown in Figure 5).
- the channel 172 and the pump-facing surface of the canister 160 can form an enclosed airflow passageway or duct that extends from the exhaust feed 174 to the backside edge 153 of the pump assembly 150.
- the channel 172 can form an enclosed airflow passageway or duct with a surface that supports the lower housing 184 of the pump assembly 150.
- the lower housing 184 of the pump assembly 150 can rest on a horizontal surface (e.g., table) when the pump assembly 150 is used without a canister 160, thereby forming an enclosed airflow passageway or duct between the channel 172 and the horizontal surface upon which the lower housing 184 rests.
- the exhaust vent 170 can be arranged to minimize the noise of the pump exhaust and to avoid the pump exhaust contacting a user of the pump assembly 150.
- the exhaust feed 174 is directed toward an opposing surface (e.g., top surface of the canister 160 when the pump assembly 150 is attached to the canister 160).
- an opposing surface e.g., top surface of the canister 160 when the pump assembly 150 is attached to the canister 160.
- the exhaust vent 170 is adapted to dissipate jets of air and sound waves that are created by the pump assembly 150.
- the channel 172 of the exhaust vent 170 forms a planar, plenum-like structure with the opposing surface, creating a rectangular duct.
- the channel 172 can be designed to promote laminar flow through the plenum-like structure of the exhaust vent 170, thereby reducing sound and jet forces produced by the pump exhaust.
- the channel 172 will form a substantially rectangular duct with the opposing surface that overlays the channel 172, with the proximal portion near the exhaust feed 174 having a smaller cross-sectional area than the distal portion near the exit opening 171 (shown in Figure 5).
- Increasing the cross-sectional area of the plenum-like structure of the exhaust vent 170 can reduce the flow velocity of the pump exhaust and thereby reduce sound and jet forces produced by the pump exhaust.
- the pump exhaust can include moisture that is drawn from the wound along with the air that the negative pressure source 190 aspirates from underneath the wound dressing to create a negative pressure under the wound dressing.
- the internal components of the pump assembly 150 e.g., electronics, sensors, valves, etc.
- the internal components of the pump assembly 150 can be protected from fouling due to moisture and aerosol debris that can be drawn into pump assembly by the negative pressure source 190.
- the exhaust vent 170 can be adapted to blow the pump exhaust in a direction that avoids the pump exhaust contacting the user. In this way, the exhaust vent 170 can avoid a user feeling the force of the pump exhaust or being contacted by moisture drawn from the wound.
- the exhaust vent 170 can further be adapted to minimize the audible level of the pump assembly 150 that is detected by the user. For example, the exhaust vent 170 can direct the sound produced by the pump assembly away from the user. As shown in Figure 5, the exhaust vent 170 can be directed to blow the pump exhaust out of a backside surface 153 of the pump assembly 150. Blowing the pump exhaust out the backside surface 153 can direct moisture, exhaust forces, and pump sounds away from the user.
- the exhaust vent 170 can be arranged so that moisture from the pump exhaust drains out of the pump assembly 150.
- the conduit that connects the pump outlet 192 to the vent outlet 174 can be arranged so that moisture within the conduit flows in a direction from the pump outlet 192 to the vent outlet 174 when the pump assembly 150 is in a horizontal orientation (i.e., supported by lower housing 184) or in suspended orientation (i.e, suspended from the strap anchor 159).
