Additional Wound Vac Therapy Device Information
The NPWT vacuum device is minimalistic, lightweight, and features battery power to allow the patient to be mobile as needed; therefore, wound vac machine prices are relatively low. The vacuum pump seals the dressing and maintains the pressure. Built-in alarms will sound if pressure is lost, if there is leakage, if a blockage is detected, or if the canister is at full capacity.
Example:
- SVED NPWT System by Cardinal Health has AC power and up to 18 hours of battery power with three pressure settings.

When purchasing NPWT consumables, it is vital to buy compatible dressings for the pump device. This ensures they will connect to the pump and maintain the negative pressure.
