V.A.C.® Therapy for Wounds
Since its introduction in 1995 (U.S.) / 1994 (Europe), V.A.C.® Therapy has changed the way wounds are healed. With more published clinical evidence than any other form of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy, V.A.C.® Therapy has been selected as the treatment of choice for more than 7,000,000 wounds worldwide*.
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 patented dressing, this helps draw wound edges together, remove infectious materials and actively promote granulation.
With more than seven million wounds treated worldwide*, only V.A.C.® Therapy delivers the proven clinical and economic outcomes caregivers can trust.
