Prototype Development Generating Vacuum for Treating Chronic Wounds Negative Pressure Level Laboratory

At present time, the medical care is being referred not only to treatment of a diagnosis disease itself, but also their complications and variations that could become chronic and therefore more devastating. With the known increase in overall life expectancy, we know that we are facing a whole different types of diseases. A case of these chronic wounds; which is a condition that has generated a very high cost both in financial perspective, and the health complications that such diseases generate. Negative pressure therapy is a procedure that has caught the attention of health professionals due to its effectiveness. But for many of them still remains unknown the biochemical process behind this therapy. On the other hand, is a process becomes costing up to $ 40,000. As only a small percentage of the population or health systems that could afford to use a system of this type in order to treat a condition of chronic wound. For this project a methodology that involves the development of a negative pressure prototype for chronic wounds is proposed. The scope of this paper is to analyze the variables involved in the negative pressure system in order to generate models of fluids and colloids for the study of the variables that are in the process of healing of chronic wounds. This with the intention of support research and development in the area of devices negative pressure therapy inexpensive that could expand the range of use and users.
