PICO provides suction known as negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) which draws out excess fluid from a wound and protects the incision or wound. PICO consists of an NPWT pump connected to an absorbent gentle adhesive dressing. The dressing is applied to the wound bed and extra adhesive strips are placed over the outside edge to help hold the dressing in place. When the pump is turned on, air is pulled out of the dressing and excess fluid from the wound will start to enter the dressing. The dressing helps to prevent bacteria from entering the wound. It may also improve blood flow to the wound which will help it to heal. Approved for use on acute wounds, chronic wounds and closed surgical incisions. PICO 14 is a portable system allowing patients the freedom to continue daily activities. The dressing is waterproof, allowing patients the ability to shower. PICO 14 is quiet and discreet, allowing for greater patient satisfaction.
