“…iNPWT has been used to improve wound‐healing outcomes in sutured wounds in various surgical specialties and procedures, including caesarean sections, vascular surgery, loop ileostomy reversal, cardiac surgery, open vein harvest in cardiac surgery, sternotomy, pectoralis major muscle flap for deep sternal infections, incisional ventral hernia repairs, orthopaedic surgery for acetabular fractures, knee arthroplasties, hip arthroplasties, femoral neck fractures, immediate breast reconstructions, and post‐bariatric abdominoplasties . These studies found that the use of incisional negative pressure therapy immediately after surgery decreased the number of SSIs, overall wound complications, seroma formation, and complications requiring repeat surgery . Also noted were reduced length of stay in hospital and in intensive care unit, reduced wound drainage, and time needed for dressing changes .…”
