Single-Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy for Free Flap Donor Sites

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2018
Various management options for free flap donor sites that require split thickness skin grafting exist. None has proven superior from both a patient care and a cost standpoint. Major complications occurring at these surgical sites include wound breakdown, tendon exposure, and loss of function. We seek to investigate the use of the PICO single-use negative pressure wound therapy device in these surgical sites and determine if it can yield superior results to simpler methods.
