The Wound Vac Company seeking surgeons to evaluate new wound care system from Pensar Medical
Fernandina Beach, FL – September 10, 2020 — The Wound Vac Company is pleased to announce that the new MicroDoc – a unique, single-patient-use disposable negative pressure wound therapy system that provides portability and discretion for active patients – is now in the final stages of FDA approval. The units, which are made in the U.S. by Pensar Medical, should be universally available in early 2021.
Compared with larger, traditional negative pressure units, these smaller systems are lightweight, ultra-quiet and small enough to fit into a pocket or purse. Powerful yet simple to operate, the MicroDoc supports uninterrupted negative pressure wound therapy for patients during normal, everyday activities.
The Wound Vac Company CEO and founder Scott Bergquist said, "As the Master Distributor for Pensar Medical, we are very excited about introducing their MicroDoc as the first single-patient use negative pressure wound therapy unit with three pressure settings – 50, 80 and 125 mmHg – to treat a wider range of needs and to help patients heal as quickly as possible.”
The MicroDoc units also feature state-of-the-art Enluxtra Adaptive Dressings, which maintain a moist environment necessary for healing wounds while providing superior absorption. As an added benefit, these dressings can help reduce scarring.
“With FDA trials complete, we are actively reaching out to dermatologists, plastic and general surgeons who are interested in partnering with us for patient applications,” said Bergquist. “In case studies thus far, we have found the unit to eliminate the need for constant dressing changes and to bridge the gap between a traditional negative pressure unit and the final phase of wound healing.”
