VAC Therapy (Vacuum-Assisted Closure)

VAC Therapy, or Vacuum-Assisted Closure, is a medical treatment used to help wounds heal faster. It involves placing a special dressing over the wound that is connected to a vacuum device. This device gently pulls away excess fluid and bacteria from the wound, while also promoting blood flow and tissue growth. The vacuum creates a controlled environment that helps accelerate healing, reduce swelling, and prevent infections. VAC Therapy is commonly used for surgical wounds, diabetic ulcers, and burns, offering an effective solution for difficult-to-heal wounds in various medical settings.
