Harnessing Technology to Accelerate Healing

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT), commonly referred to as Wound VAC therapy, is a proven and innovative treatment designed to promote faster healing for complex or chronic wounds. At Advanced Mobile Wound Care, we bring this advanced technology directly to your home, making effective wound care more accessible and convenient than ever.

Harnessing Technology to Accelerate Healing

What Is NPWT/Wound VAC?

NPWT uses a specialized device to create negative pressure (a vacuum) over a wound. This technique removes excess fluid, reduces swelling, and stimulates blood flow, which promotes the growth of healthy tissue. It’s often used for:

  • Chronic wounds, such as diabetic or venous ulcers.
  • Post-surgical wounds with delayed healing.
  • Traumatic wounds or skin grafts requiring extra support.

This therapy not only speeds up healing but also minimizes the risk of infection by keeping the wound environment clean and controlled.

How Does Wound VAC Therapy Work?

The process involves placing a foam or gauze dressing over the wound, sealed with a special adhesive drape. A tube connected to the dressing attaches to a small vacuum pump, which creates negative pressure. This pressure:

  • Removes wound drainage and bacteria.
  • Reduces swelling to improve circulation.
  • Encourages the formation of new tissue and faster healing.

Our team ensures that the equipment is set up correctly and adjusted as needed to meet your unique needs.
