AC Wound Management System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (negative pressure) to help promote wound healing by removing fluids, including irrigation and body fluids, wound exudates, and infectious materials. Examples of appropriate wound types include: Diabetic/Neuropathic ulcers, Pressure ulcers, Chronic wounds, Acute wounds, Dehisced wound, Partial-thickness burns, and Flaps and Grafts.

The AC Wound Management System is a powered suction pump that utilizes a pump drive to generate light negative pressure. The pump drive is powered by a rechargeable battery. Optionally the unit can be connected to mains power using an included power converter. AC Wound Management System has a negative pressure setting range of -50 mmHg to -175 mmHg which is electronically monitored and controlled. The system includes a keyboard for user interface as well as audible and visual alarm indicators. The system includes a 300cc canister. The system can be set on a countertop, carried using a shoulder bag or mounted to an IV pole or bedside rail using the AC Wound Management System's mount. The AC Wound Management System includes the following three components: The pump drive, The waste canister, with its suction tube (the two are connected permanently), FDA cleared generic NPWT dressing, which will be distributed by NanoVibronix. The pump drive is a non-disposable unit which contains a motor, a battery and a user interface. The drive has a piston which protrudes the drive and reciprocates to activate the suction pump, which is integral to the canister. In the drive there is also a vacuum level monitor which monitors the vacuum at all times and maintains the required set therapy. The waste canister attaches to the drive. The pump creates vacuum within the waste canister for the purpose of suctioning exudates from the wound and collecting them in the canister. The canister has a hydrophobic filter. The suction tube connects the waste canister to the wound dressing applying the vacuum generated within the waste canister to the wound site. The tube also transfers the exudates from the wound to the waste canister by maintaining flow from the wound site towards the waste canister at all times.
