FAQ

• What is the Avance Solo NPWT system? 

  Avance Solo is a portable single patient use negative pressure system that delivers negative pressure to the wound site while transporting exudate from the wound to a dressing and canister ¹  . It is indicated for use on closed surgical incisions (ciNPT) and open wounds (dNPWT).

  The system uses Controlled Fluid Management (CFM) technology™ which is a combination of controlled airflow, absorptive dressing and distal canister enabling the Avance^® Solo NPWT System to deliver continuous regulated negative pressure^{1, 2, 3}.
