Description
- PICO provides suction known as negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) which draws out excess fluid from a wound and protects the incision or wound
- PICO consists of an NPWT pump connected to an absorbent gentle adhesive dressing
- The dressing is applied to the wound bed and extra adhesive strips are placed over the outside edge to help hold the dressing in place
- When the pump is turned on, air is pulled out of the dressing and excess fluid from the wound will start to enter the dressing
- The dressing helps to prevent bacteria from entering the wound
- It may also improve blood flow to the wound which will help it to heal
- Approved for use on acute wounds, chronic wounds, and closed surgical incisions
- PICO 7 is a portable system that allows patients the freedom to continue daily activities
- The dressing is waterproof, allowing patients the ability to shower
- PICO 7 is quiet and discreet, allowing for greater patient satisfaction
