Negative Pressure Vs. Dermabond

The patient was satisfied with both scars however he preferred the scar which was dressed with the NPseal® dressing.

With the purpose of evaluating the ease of use and the aesthetic result of the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device, a direct comparison between Dermabond closure and NPseal negative pressure wound therapy was evaluated. Laparoscopic port site incisions were dressed with either Dermabond or the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device and aesthetic and functional outcomes were evaluated.

Right Sided Colon Cancer with Umbilical Extraction Site

On return to clinic on postoperative day 30, the umbilical extraction site was clean with no wound infection and the noticeable scar was minimal.

With the purpose of evaluating the ease of use and aesthetic result of the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device, the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device was placed over a midline colorectal umbilical extraction site.

Open Rectal Prolapse Repair

On return to clinic on postoperative week 4, the pfannenstiel incision site was clean with no wound infection and the noticeable scar was minimal.

With the purpose of decreasing surgical site infection and improving wound cosmesis after open pelvic surgery, a case report of the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device over a pfannenstiel incision was completed. Wound cosmesis and exudate production were evaluated.

Hartmann’s Reversal after Acute Diverticulitis

On return to clinic on postoperative week 4, the colostomy takedown site incision was clean with no wound infection and the noticeable scar was minimal.

With the purpose of decreasing surgical site infection and improving wound cosmesis after colostomy takedown, a case report of the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device used over the dirty wound of a Hartmann’s colostomy reversal was evaluated. Wound cosmesis and exudate production were evaluated.

Protective Ileostomy Closure after Rectal Cancer

On return to clinic on postoperative day 30 the ileostomy takedown site incision was clean with no wound infection and the noticeable scar was minimal.

With the purpose of decreasing surgical site infection and improving wound cosmesis after closing a diverting ileostomy created after low rectal cancer surgery a case report utilizing the NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device was performed. The NPseal negative pressure wound therapy device was placed over a diverting ileostomy after neoadjuvant chemoradiation and wound cosmesis and exudate production was evaluated.
