v.a.c. therapy
V.A.C.® Therapy promotes wound healing through Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT). By delivering negative pressure (a vacuum) at the wound site through a proprietary dressing, the wound edges are drawn together, infectious materials are removed & granulation tissue is promoted at the cellular level. Use of V.A.C.® Therapy has also been shown to help speed the healing of wound grafts.
The V.A.C.® Therapy System is comprised of essential components that actively work together to help promote wound healing.
V.A.C.® Therapy Unit - Provides negative pressure wound therapy with integrated patient safety features.
SENSAT.R.A.C.™ Technology - Regulates pressure at the wound site to provide accurate delivery of prescribed therapy settings.
V.A.C.® Canister - Collects exudate.
V.A.C.® GRANUFOAM™ Dressing - Help provide the necessary mechanisms to promote granulation tissue formation.
Please note the VAC unit has been discontinued by the manufacturer, we still offer a loan unit and will continue to supply consumables while stock is still available.
Dressings sizes (unless stated):
• Small = 10x7cm
• Medium = 18x12cm
For more information on dressing management see the V.A.C.® Therapy for Veterinary Use User Manual or the Quick Start Manual, both available on request.
