The first commercial negative pressure woun d therapy (NPWT) system\, Solventum™ V.A.C.® Therapy\, was introduced in 1 995 and has become the global leader in NPWT. NPWT promotes an environment for wound healing by protecting the wound from external contamination\, p roviding a moist wound environment\, and promoting the formation of granul ation tissue. This integrated NPWT system is comprised of specialized dres sings\, adhesive drape\, pressure sensing pad\, and multi-lumen tubing tha t connects the wound to the therapy unit\, enabling real-time pressure mon itoring and fluid management via a disposable canister. Clinical outcomes of V.A.C.® Therapy have been documented in more than 1\,700 peer-reviewed publications and 79 randomized clinical trials. Technical advances have ex panded NPWT modalities\; when used alongside good clinical and field care practices\, these systems enable healthcare providers to deliver life- and limb-saving care across the wound healing continuum and diverse operation al environments. While these options have expanded the potential to manage a wide variety of wounds in patients\, they can complicate product select ion. This presentation will highlight distinguishing features of available NPWT systems\, including traditional NPWT\, NPWT with instillation and dw ell (NPWTi-d) of topical wound cleansing solutions\, closed incision negat ive pressure therapy (ciNPT)\, and open abdomen negative pressure therapy (OA-NPT). Clinical evidence will be presented demonstrating how these woun d management solutions can impact the military wound care pathway—from the battlefield\, through evacuation to acute and ambulatory care in hospital s and clinics\, and into the home. This session will describe key technolo gical innovations\, clinical evidence\, and best practices supporting the use of NPWT based on treatment goals and military echelons of care. Partic ipants will gain actionable knowledge to optimize wound healing\, improve patient outcomes\, and support readiness and recovery in the context of wo unds managed within both the Department of War and the Department of Veter ans Affairs.
