V.A.C. GranuFoam Dressing Technology
The Science behind V.A.C® GranuFoam™ Dressing
The unique open pore structure of V.A.C.® GranuFoam™ Dressings actively helps promote healing at the cellular level. The interaction between the wound and the V.A.C.® GranuFoam™ Dressing delivers the necessary Mechanisms of Action (macrostrain and microstrain) critical for fast20 and effective5 wound healing.
Features
- Actively promotes formation of granulation tissue at the cellular level
- Flexible design adapts to the contours of deep and irregularly shaped wounds
- 400 – 600 micron pore size helps provide uniform distribution of negative pressure at the wound site
- Hydrophobic pore structure helps remove exudate and infectious material
- Compresses to less than half its size under negative pressure to help draw wound edges together
- Induces macrostrain and microstrain
Because chronic and acute wounds can be difficult to treat, V.A.C.® Therapy offers multiple dressing options engineered for specific wound applications.
