SYSTEM FOR COMBINED TRANSCUTANEOUS BLOOD GAS MONITORING AND NEGATIVE PRESSURE WOUND TREATMENT

摘要

A system for administering negative pressure therapy to a wound includes a screen adapted to be positioned at the wound. A reduced pressure source is in fluid communication with the screen, and a Hood gas transducer is exposed to a reduced pressure provided by the reduced pressure source. The reduced pressure supplied by the reduced pressure source induces hyperperfusion of a blood gas at the wound.
