METHOD TO DYNAMICALLY MEASURE APPOSITION AND PATIENT LIMB MOVEMENT IN A NEGATIVE PRESSURE CLOSED INCISION DRESSING

摘要

A negative pressure wound therapy system includes at least one sensor coupled to a wound dressing for a wound of a patient, and a control circuit. The at least one sensor is configured to output an indication of a displacement of the wound dressing. The control circuit is configured to receive the indication of the displacement of the wound dressing, calculate a therapy parameter corresponding to the indication of the displacement, and output the therapy parameter.
