In clinical practice many wounds are slow to heal and difficult to manage. The recently introduced technique of topical negative pressure therapy (TNP) has been developed to try to overcome some of these difficulties. TNP applies a controlled negative pressure to the surface of a wound that has potential advantages for wound treatment and management. Although the concept itself, of using suction in wound management is not new, the technique of applying a negative pressure at the surface of the wound is. This paper explores the origins and proposed mechanisms of action of TNP therapy and discusses the types of wounds that are thought to benefit most from use of this system.
在临床实践中,许多伤口愈合缓慢且难以处理。最近引入的局部负压疗法(TNP)技术旨在克服其中一些困难。TNP对伤口表面施加可控的负压,这对伤口治疗和处理具有潜在优势。尽管在伤口处理中使用吸力这一概念本身并不新鲜,但在伤口表面施加负压的技术却是新的。本文探讨了TNP疗法的起源和作用机制,并讨论了被认为最能从该系统使用中受益的伤口类型。
