Does closed incision negative wound pressure therapy in non‐traumatic major lower‐extremity amputations improve survival rates?
Abstract
Closed incision negative pressure wound therapy (CINPWT) has been shown to be clinically effective compared with the traditional gauze dressing, reducing surgical site infections and wound complications. We evaluated the effect of CINPWT compared with gauze dressing on the need for revision surgery and survival after non‐traumatic major lower amputation.
