Study summary

The main questions the study aims to answer are:

  • How much do wounds improve when using the Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System for a maximum of 14 days?
  • How safe is the Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System?
Read the detailed description

The goal of this observational study is to gather information about the the Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System in people that have a wound that leaks fluid and is 14 days old or less. The Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) System combines a sterile dressing comprising gelling fibre technology to absorb wound exudate with negative pressure applied to the wound via a vacuum pump. The Avelle™ NPWT System consists of a disposable single patient use battery powered pump, absorbent wound dressing, and fixation strips.

Participants will:

  • be asked questions about their medical history and medications
  • asked to allow the wound and surrounding skin to be examined
  • be asked to use the Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System for a maximum of 14 days
  • be asked to review any issues or concerns with the Avelle™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System

  3. Subject has one target wound which is ≤ 14 days old
  4. Subject has target wound that is intended to heal by primary intention
  5. Subject has a target wound which is ≤ 25% of the dressing area as per the Instructions For Use
  6. Target wound has low to moderate exudate
  7. Wound is suitable for treatment with Avelle™ NPWT
  8. Subject is deemed capable and willing to comply with the protocol and product instructions.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Complete wound healing evidenced by substantially complete epithelialization (>95% by area estimate).

    Primary performance outcome

    Time frame: Up to 14 days

  2. Frequency of device-related serious adverse events (SAEs) (all adverse events attributed to the wound and or device will be collected and assessed as non-device related or device related, and serious or non-serious, by the Investigator)

    Primary safety outcome

    Time frame: Up to 14 days
