Terapia por pressão negativa na ferida traumática complexa do períneo

Abstract: The use of negative pressure therapy led to improvement of local wound conditions faster than traditional dressings, without significant complications, proving to be the current best alternative as an adjunct for the treatment of this type of injury, always followed by surgical reconstruction with grafts and flaps.

“…In 1997, Argenta and Moryskwas 14 developed a commercial product based on the use of negative pressure (VAC) and began to use it for wound treatment, providing an excellent environment for faster healing. Negative pressure therapy can promote approximation of the wound edges; remove exudates, infectious material, and cellular debris; reduce edema; and promote perfusion through neoangiogenesis and cellular responses such as migration and proliferation.…”

“…Besides that, the use of hormones of the growth, which have the potency to promote a faster healing of the wound, have also been useful. It is also mentioned the use of papain, which helps in the debridement, attacks infection and accelerates healing, depending on its concentration (22)(23)(24)(25) . As to the treatment with hyperbaric oxygen therapy, the results have been controversial, once some authors defend its use while others state that there is the need of more studies when it is applied on the several types of fasciitis (9,11) .…”

“…Thus, the system connects to a pump (vacuum) generating continuous or intermittent subatmospheric pressure. The pressure is generally set at 125mmHg and distributed uniformly over the entire wound through the sponge pores 19,[21][22][23] .…”
