Summary:
The treatment of surgical incisions has evolved. This article aims to discuss the indications and outcomes associated with the use of incisional negative pressure wound therapy (iNPWT) for the management of surgical incisions. Multiple factors play a role in the benefits seen with iNPWT. The primary indication for iNPWT is to help manage the closed surgical incision environment and remove fluid from the incision via application of continuous negative pressure at -125 mm Hg. Pertinent literature will be reviewed.
