SNaP®
Quality of life and dignity
The small, lightweight (< 3oz),discreet, and 100% silent SNaP® Wound Care System allows patients to go to work, enjoy social engagements, and live their normal lives without exposing their wound care needs to the world.
Clinical Performance
The SNaP® Wound Care System Dressing features a proprietary absorptive hydrocolloid that helps to prevent periwound skin maceration. The SNaP® Wound Care System Cartridge offers the clinically proven negative pressure levels of 75 mmHg, 100 mmHg, and 125 mmHg.
Ease-of-Use
The rapid two-step application of the SNaP® Wound Care System is simple and leads to quick patient turnover in the clinic. The SNaP® Wound Care System Dressing creates a robust and reliable seal and is easily connected to the SNaP® Wound Care System Cartridge with cut-to-length tubing. The fully disposable off-the-shelf solution also facilitates easy inpatient to outpatient transitions. The SNaP® Wound Care System was designed to make negative pressure therapy easy for the patient and the clinician.
Preventing "Dragons"
Often, NPWT is a therapy of last resort to treat difficult-to-heal chronic wounds. The SNaP® Wound Care System is changing the entire wound care treatment paradigm by facilitating intervention earlier in the disease process. Clinicians can grab the SNaP® Wound Care System off the shelf for use on patients that might not yet be candidates for larger, more lifestyle-invasive NPWT systems. Clinicians now have the option of using the SNaP® Wound Care System early to treat "lizards" before they mature into "dragons."
Indications For Use:
The SNaP® Wound Care System received FDA clearance in August 2009. The FDA determined that the SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device, particularly as the device may promote wound healing through the removal of excess exudates, infectious material and tissue debris. The SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for removal of small amounts of exudates from the following types of wounds:
- Chronic
- Acute
- Traumatic
- Subacute
- Dehisced
- Partial Thickness Burns
- Ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure)
- Surgically closed incisions
- Flaps and grafts
