Description

The Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) System is an innovative solution designed to enhance wound care management. This portable, single-patient device integrates seamlessly with advanced Hydrofiber® Technology, making it particularly effective for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. It addresses a variety of wound types, including chronic, acute, traumatic, and surgically closed incisions.

Key Features

• Continuous Negative Pressure: The system delivers a consistent negative pressure of -80 mmHg, aiding in optimal wound healing conditions.
• Hydrofiber® Technology: This unique feature ensures effective exudate management by locking in wound fluid and bacteria, reducing the risk of infection.
• Dressing Integrity: The dressing maintains its integrity during removal, minimizing disruption to the wound site.

Dressing Design

• Secure Placement: Available in multiple sizes, each dressing features a gentle silicone adhesive border for secure application.
• Showerproof Barrier: The film layer acts as a bacterial and viral barrier, while allowing exudate evaporation.
• Extended Wear Time: Each dressing can be worn for up to seven days, typically lasting three to four days.

Pump Unit

• Compact and Disposable: The small, battery-powered pump is designed for ease of use with a 30-day lifespan.
• Simple Operation: Features one-button functionality with visual indicators for operation status and battery life.
• Water Resistance: Rated at IP22, providing resilience against water exposure.

Patient Convenience

• Mobility and Ease of Use: Patients can temporarily disconnect the pump for up to one hour, enhancing mobility and self-management.

Indications and Contraindications

The Avelle™ NPWT System is indicated for a wide range of wounds, including diabetic and pressure ulcers, while contraindications include necrotic tissue and untreated osteomyelitis. It is intended for single-patient use only and is not suitable for MRI environments.

System Components

The system requires separate ordering of pump and dressing packs, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the wound and surrounding healthy tissue. This thoughtful design underscores its commitment to effective wound care management, providing healthcare professionals and patients with a reliable, advanced therapy option.
