We report on the efficacy of the Prevena incisional wound management system, a negative pressure wound care system, in patients at a high risk of wound infection following cardiac surgery.

Methods:Ten patients with a mean Fowler risk score of 4.6 (1.6~9.9) were included. The Prevena system was applied immediately after surgery and used for 5 days while negative pressure of -125 mmHg was continuously applied, and the condition of the wound and surrounding skin was evaluated immediately after removal of the Prevena system.

Result:Ten patients had completely healed wounds, and no skin damage around the wound due to negative pressure after removal of the Prevena system was observed. No skin damage was observed around the wound after removal of the Prevena system, and no wound complications occurred until discharge.

Conclusions:The Prevena system is safe, easy to use, and useful for wound healing in patients at a high risk for wound complications after cardiac surgery.
