Our Story & Vision

Guard Medical’s simple Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) technology originated with NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine in response to physicians’ identification of unmet needs related to Surgical Site Infections (SSI).

NPWT has been shown to reduce SSI, but is in limited use due to its high cost and complexity.

Guard Medical developed an innovative, wearable, surgical wound dressing, NPseal, to meet these needs. NPseal provides a cost-effective and easy-to-use solution that makes prophylactic use of a proven, yet under-utilized therapy, possible.

NPseal helps to improves patients’ lives by freeing them to go about daily life at home as they recover.

NPseal supports surgical procedures such as general surgery, colorectal surgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, obstetrics (caesarian), orthopedics and dermatology. The technology is well suited for inpatient and outpatient surgery in ambulatory surgical centers (ASC) and office-based settings.

Guard Medical’s vision is to develop NPWT solutions for use on a wide range of surgical wound types and sizes with broad applications for infection prevention, scar mitigation and enhanced cosmesis.

By making NPWT therapy more accessible, Guard Medical is helping to advance medical care and improve patient quality-of-life.
