Negative pressure wound therapy system capable of detecting viscosity of wound exudates

Abstract

The invention discloses a negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) system capable of detecting viscosity of wound exudates, comprising an exudates collecting bottle, an NPWT device, a wound kit and a device for detecting viscosity of wound exudates, wherein the exudates collecting bottle is used for collecting the wound exudates; the NPWT device comprises a negative pressure source and a controller; the wound kit is used for filling and sealing the wounds and is communicated with the exudates collecting bottle by a connecting pipe; and the device for detecting viscosity of wound exudates is used for detecting the viscosity of the wound exudates in the exudates collecting bottle. The system can detect the viscosity of the wound exudates, quantize the viscosity concretely, ensure the medical workers to more accurately know the viscosity of the wound exudates and timely treat the conditions such as higher viscosity and aggravated wounds, and provide convenience for the medical workers to study the wounds.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of negative pressure wound treatment equipment, in particular to a negative pressure wound treatment system capable of detecting the viscosity of wound exudate. Background technique [0002] Negative pressure wound therapy equipment, called Negative_Pressure_Wound_Therapy_Devices in the United States, referred to as NPWT, its principle is to promote wound healing by applying negative pressure to the wound. According to the clinical experience in the United States in the past 10 years, the device has a good healing effect on various acute and chronic wounds. [0003] Generally, a negative pressure wound therapy system includes a negative pressure wound therapy device, a wound kit, and a container for collecting exudate from the wound (herein, the container is referred to as a liquid collection bottle). Among them, the wound kit is used to seal the wound and create a negative pressure space; the negative pres...
