Pico 14 Single-Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System
Smith+Nephew
Description
Single-use, portable negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) system that manages low to moderate volumes of exudate. PICO 14 sNPWT consists of a pump, coiled extension tubing, batteries, sterile dressings and fixation strips. The PICO 14 pump maintains negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) at 80 mmHg (nominal) to the wound surface. Exudate is managed by the dressing through a combination of absorption and evaporation of moisture through the outer film. The PICO 14 system is intended to be used for up to 14 days.
Indications
Patients who would benefit from a suction device (NPWT) as it may promote wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials. Appropriate wound types include: include chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure), flaps and grafts. Suitable for use in hospital and home care settings.
Contraindications
