Learn about our technology
Have confidence in your wound therapy solution by using technology.
-
Not all NPWT devices are the same - V.A.C.® Therapy
V.A.C.® Therapy is the only negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) device engineered with technology that maintains and adjusts to deliver set pressure at the wound site. SENSAT.R.A.C.™ Technology provides confidence that the programmed negative pressure is being maintained.
This technology can detect blockages and notify clinicians, force air into the system to reduce blockages and sense pressure changes to the wound site. It can also adjust as conditions change and draw exudate away from the wound.
-
Manage wounds with SNAP™ Therapy System
Manage wounds with the power of a disposable, mechanically powered NPWT system. The SNAP™ Therapy System combines the simplicity of advanced wound dressings with the benefits of negative pressure therapy in a discreet design that won’t get noticed.
This small and silent system minimizes interference with sleep and activity, allowing patients mobility while managing their wounds. It’s available off the shelf, is fast and easy for physicians to apply and provides quick sealing to uneven skin or body contours.
Specific indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions and safety information exist for KCI products and therapies. Healthcare providers should review the product User Manual, Safety Information and/or Instructions for Use prior to application.
