Start Smart with 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy
Discover how negative pressure wound therapy with instillation can promote healing for complex wounds.
-
40% of wounds are infected or critically colonised1.
-
Hard-to-heal wounds can result in pain, morbidity, prolonged treatment and in some cases major reconstructive surgery2.
-
Chronic wounds are associated with reduced quality of life, mobility and mental wellbeing for both patients and caregivers3.
Accelerate healing with a smarter way to manage wounds
Wounds may be susceptible to contamination or the development of bioburden – key contributors to complications like infection, inflammation, and delayed healing. 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy combines vacuum assisted drainage with automated topical wound solution distribution to consistently cleanse and reduce bioburden.

-
CleanseTopical wound solutions are instilled in the wound to help dilute and solubilise infectious material4.
-
RemoveNegative pressure helps to remove solubilised wound debris and infectious materials, lowering bioburden5.
-
PromoteVeraflo Therapy promotes tissue formation and perfusion to prepare the wound for closure6.
