Abstract

 Limited clinical effectiveness data suggest that single-use negative pressure wound therapy may reduce the frequency of dressing changes when compared with standard wound therapy (evidence from 1 single-arm study).
 No clinical evidence was identified describing the impact of single-use negative pressure wound therapy on functionality, pain, mortality, length of hospital stay, quality of life, and safety.
 It is unknown whether single-use or disposable negative pressure wound therapy is cost-effective for the management of chronic wounds (no eligible studies found).
 One guideline provides recommendations relevant to single-use negative pressure wound therapy with chronic wounds; however, there is no clear link to a robust evidence review reported by the guideline developers.
