Closed Incision Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Assisted Full Thickness Graft Aite Wound Dressing to Prevent Surgical Site Infection

Abstract

Closed incision Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (CiNPWT) which is a topical application of negative pressure over the wound plays a key role in healing and prevention of surgical site infections. We have used full thickness graft following post burn contracture release. We then applied negative pressure wound therapy over to this flap to assess its efficacy and safety in aiding healing.
