Negative Pressure Level and Effects on Bacterial Growth Kinetics in an Wound Model.

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has been widely adopted in wound healing strategies due to its multimodal mechanism of action. While NPWT's positive impression on wound healing is well-established, its effect on bacterial load reduction remains equivocal. This study investigates NPWT's efficacy in reducing bioburden using an porcine skin model, focusing on the impact of and .
