Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a connector device (1) for a negative pressure wound therapy system. The connector device (1) comprises a connector housing (2), a fluid outlet (3) connected to the connector housing (2), an air supply port (4), an air filter (5) and a coupling device (6 ). The fluid outlet (3) is adapted to be connected to a source of negative pressure (23). The connector device (1) is adapted to engage with a wound-side connector (25) of a wound-side assembly (19) by means of a coupling device (6). The wound-side assembly (19) includes a fluid removal conduit (21) and an air supply conduit (22), wherein a portion of each of the fluid removal conduit (21) and the air supply conduit (22) is connected to a wound-side connector (25 ). The connector device (1) is such that when the connector device (1) is engaged with the wound side connector (25), the fluid removal conduit (21) is fluidly connected to the fluid outlet (3) and the air supply conduit (22) is fluidly connected to the An air supply port (4) such that the air environment of the connector device (1) can be supplied to the air supply conduit (22) via the air supply port (4) and the air filter (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a connector device. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a connector device for a negative pressure wound therapy system. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to a method of connecting a connector device to a wound side assembly. Background technique [0002] Some types of wounds are advantageously treated by so called negative pressure wound therapy. In the field of negative pressure wound therapy, negative pressure is applied to wounds for relatively long periods of time, and it has been recognized that the healing process can be accelerated by using such wound treatments. [0003] To this end, a negative pressure wound treatment system may be used, which generally includes a wound covering member and an underlying wound filler adapted to be placed over the wound. The system typically further includes a source of negative pressure, such as a vacuum pump, in fluid communication with the wound...
