Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to an apparatus for treating an open wound, and, more specifically, relates to a self contained wound dressing with an external portable pump system which draws wound fluids into a collection canister supported by the patient.
- Wound closure involves the migration of epithelial and subcutaneous tissue adjacent the wound towards the center of the wound until the wound closes.
- closure is difficult with large wounds or wounds that have become infected.
- a zone of stasis i.e. an area in which localized swelling of tissue restricts the flow of blood to the tissues
- the epithelial and subcutaneous tissues surrounding the wound not only receive diminished oxygen and nutrients, but, are also less able to successfully fight microbial infection and, thus, are less able to close the wound naturally.
- Such wounds have presented difficulties to medical personnel for many years.
- Wound dressings have been used in the medical industry to protect and/or facilitate healing of open wounds.
- negative pressure therapy which is also known as suction or vacuum therapy.

- Wound dressing apparatus 100 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated.
- Wound dressing apparatus 100 includes composite wound dressing 102 and pump system 104 tethered to the wound dressing 102.
- Wound dressing 102 is in the form of an article with multiple layers arranged in juxtaposed or superposed relation.

- the base layer 106 is in direct contact with the wound bed "w".
- the base layer 106 is typically porous and non-adherent.
- “Non-adherent” as used herein refers to a material that does not adhere to tissues in and around the wound bed.
- Porous as used herein refers to a material which contains numerous small perforations or pores which allow wound fluids of all kinds to pass through the material to the dressing layers above. The passage of wound fluid through the porous material is preferably unidirectional such that wound exudate does not flow back to the wound bed. This direction flow feature could be in the form of directional apertures imparted into the material layer, a lamination of materials of different absorption to the base layer 106 or specific material selection that encourages directional flow.
- Exemplary materials used as the base layer 106 include a contact layer sold under the trademark XEROFLO ® by Kendall Corp, a division of TycoHealthcare.
- agents such as hydrogels and medicaments could be bonded or coated to the base layer 106 to reduce bioburden in the wound, promote healing and reduce pain associated with dressing changes or removal.
- Medicaments include, for example, antimicrobial agents, growth factors, antibiotics, analgesics, and the like.
- the analgesic could include a mechanism that would allow the release of that agent prior to dressing removal or change.
- the layer proximal to the base layer 106 is the packing/absorbent layer 108.

The only requirement as to shape is that the packing/absorbent layer 108 is suitable to conform to a particular shape of the wound.
- a further use for the packing/absorbent layer 108 is to decrease the incidence of infection in the wound bed.
- the packing/absorbent layer 108 may be treated with medicaments.

- the top layer 110 encompasses the perimeter of the wound dressing 102 to surround the wound bed "w” to provide an occlusive seal around the perimeter of the wound bed "w".
- the top layer 110 may include an adhesive bonded to an area that surrounds the wound bed “w” or may incorporate an additional layer which has the adhesive.
- the adhesive must provide acceptable adhesion to the tissue "t" surrounding the wound bed “w” skin, e.g., the periwound area, and be acceptable for use on skin without contact deterioration (for example, the adhesive should preferably be non-irritating and non-sensitizing.)
- the adhesive may be semi-permeable to permit the contacted skin to breathe and transmit moisture. Alternatively, the adhesive may be impermeable. Additionally, the adhesive could be activated or de-activated by an external stimulus such as heat or a given fluid solution or chemical reaction.
