Negative-pressure wound therapy open-abdomen dressing

37 devices · GMDN 61147

Negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) open-abdomen dressings are specialized sterile coverings designed for patients with exposed abdominal organs, such as those suffering from abdominal compartment syndrome. They create a protective barrier while delivering controlled negative pressure to promote wound healing and stabilize the abdomen when surgical closure isn’t immediately possible.

These devices are typically single-use and regulated as medical devices, often requiring compliance with standards for wound care and negative-pressure therapy. They are supplied sterile and connected to external NPWT systems, ensuring proper use in clinical settings where open-abdomen management is necessary.
