Measure
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System
The Avance NPWT system is intended to help promote wound healing, including drainage and removal of infectious material or other fluids, under the influence of continuous and/or intermittent negative pressure. Avance NPWT system is designed to be used for a wide range of wounds which are suitable for NPWT.
