NPWT in Treatment of Abdominal Wall Defect Following ?Damage control sugery?
Original language description
The concept of ?damage control surgery? also known as ?staged laparotomy? is very useful in treatment of trauma or other emergency cases. Common consequence of this procedure is abdominal wall defect. Treatment of these serious and often life-threateningdefects may also involve NPWT (Negative Pressure Wound Therapy). We observed 32 patients with an abdominal wall defect following damage control surgery who were treated using NPWT. We evaluated the length of treatment, wound size, onset of infection, level of pain and the price of treatment. We assessed wound size using the WHAT method and to assess the risk of infection we used W.A.R. classification.The NPWT was found like very good method of treatment for abdominal wall defects following damage control surgery.
