Wound contraction and macro-deformation during negative pressure therapy of sternotomy wounds

BACKGROUND: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is believed to initiate granulation tissue formation via macro-deformation of the wound edge. However, only few studies have been performed to evaluate this hypothesis. The present study was performed to investigate the effects of NPWT on wound cont...
