Credence Home Health Services is proud to offer state-of-the-art V.A.C. Therapy, also known as Vacuum-Assisted Closure Therapy. This advanced wound-healing technique utilizes negative pressure to promote faster healing, reduce infection risk, and improve overall wound outcomes. Our highly trained healthcare professionals are experienced in providing comprehensive V.A.C. Therapy services in the comfort of your own home.
How V.A.C. (Vacuum-Assisted Closure) Therapy Works:
V.A.C. Therapy is a specialized wound management system that uses negative pressure to facilitate wound healing. The therapy involves the application of a specialized dressing to the wound area. The dressing is then connected to a vacuum device, creating a controlled and continuous negative pressure environment. This controlled negative pressure helps in several ways:
- Promotes Healing: The negative pressure helps to remove excess fluid, bacteria, and other substances from the wound, creating an optimal environment for healing. It enhances blood flow, stimulates tissue growth, and promotes the formation of healthy granulation tissue.
- Reduces Infection Risk: The continuous negative pressure aids in reducing the risk of infection by removing bacteria and creating an environment that is less conducive to bacterial growth. This helps to minimize the likelihood of complications and supports the body’s natural healing processes.
- Manages Exudate: V.A.C. Therapy effectively manages wound exudate (fluid) by removing it from the wound bed. This helps to maintain a clean and moist wound environment, which is crucial for optimal healing.
- Enhances Wound Closure: By promoting the formation of granulation tissue and reducing wound size, V.A.C. Therapy can help accelerate wound closure. It is particularly beneficial for chronic wounds, surgical incisions, pressure ulcers, and complex wounds that have been difficult to heal using traditional wound care methods.
