Vacuum-assisted closure therapy: wound care and nursing implications.

Melissa W Kaufman1, Douglas W Pahl.   

Abstract

The management of chronic, nonhealing, draining wounds is challenging for the wound, ostomy, and continence nurse and other health care providers involved in skin integrity care. Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy has proven cost efficient, safe, and effective as a treatment modality in wound care. The background, description, mechanisms of action, indications for use, and nursing implications of VAC therapy are presented.
