Help advance the standard of care with 3M™ Prevena™ Therapy

EXPRESS_Fishawack Health | 18667_3M_Prevena_PRM_Video_VF Every day, you make the best decisions for your patients based on your training, your experience, your clinical judgment, grounded in clinical evidence. Proactive Risk Management with 3M Prevena Therapy or PRM is an evidence based standardized approach that helps advance the standard of care for closed incision negative pressure therapy. With the costly reality of at risk surgical patient, proactively reducing the risk of post-operative complications is a priority. Prevena therapy has demonstrated significant improvement in key patient outcomes across multiple specialties. PRM gives you resources and tools to help support your decision making and optimize outcomes. And it's all grounded in level 1, 2, and 3 clinical evidence. Help advance the standard of care with Proactive Risk Management with Prevena Therapy, and get more control over postoperative healing.

The costly reality of at-risk incisions

  • In an increasingly complex healthcare environment, surgeons are faced with unique challenges that can negatively affect outcomes. Effectively managing the risk of postoperative complication is a priority.

    • Surgical site infections (SSIs) account for 22%–36% of all healthcare-associated infections (HAIs)1,2
    • Patients with an SSI are 6X more likely to have a 30-day readmission3
    • The average added cost from SSIs is $38,6564
    • A patient who develops an SSI has on average a 9.58 day longer hospital stay4
    • A patient who develops an SSI has on average a 2.2X longer ICU stay3

Implement Proactive Risk Management (PRM) with Prevena Therapy

Proactive Risk Management (PRM) with 3M™ Prevena™ Therapy provides healthcare professionals with an evidence-based, standardized approach that helps to advance the standard of care for closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT). This intuitive, actionable model is grounded in level 1, 2 and 3 clinical evidence to help support you through procedural and patient risk stratification.

3M™Prevena™ Therapy Indications for Use:
3M™Prevena™ 125 Therapy Unit and 3M™ Prevena™ Plus 125 Therapy Unit manage the environment of closed surgical incisions and remove fluid away from the surgical incision via the application of -125 mmHg continuous negative pressure.

When used with legally marketed compatible dressings, Prevena 125 and Prevena Plus 125 Therapy Units are intended to aid in reducing the incidence of seroma; and, in patients at high risk for post-operative infections, aid in reducing the incidence of superficial surgical site infection in Class I and Class II wounds. The effectiveness of Prevena Therapy in reducing the incidence of SSIs and seroma in all surgical procedures and populations has not been demonstrated. See full indications for use and limitations at hcbgregulatory.3m.com.

3M™ Prevena™ Restor™ Therapy Indications for Use: The 3M™ Prevena Restor™ Incision Management System is intended to manage the environment of surgical incisions that continue to drain following sutured or stapled closure by maintaining a closed environment and removing exudate via the application of negative pressure wound therapy.
