About this study

The primary objective of this study is to determine acceptable progress towards the goal of therapy for a diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) and pressure Injuries/ulcers (PI/PU) wounds when using the Medela Invia Motion Endure NPWT system during 4-week study duration.

Goal of therapy will be defined by the physician according to initial assessment:

Endpoints (dependent on goal of therapy):

  • Decrease in wound volume
  • Decrease in size of the tunneling area
  • Decrease in size of undermining
  • Decrease in amount of slough
  • Increase in granulation tissue
  • The wound bed is progressing acceptably towards a transition to another treatment modality such as Moist Wound Healing (MWH), surgical closure, or a flap or graft.

**Study endpoint will be determined by physician at the time of enrollment, when the goal of therapy is documented**

B. Secondary Objectives

  • To evaluate the ease of use from clinicians.
  • To evaluate overall satisfaction from clinicians. C. Tertiary Objectives
  • Adequate management of the exudate

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult subjects ≥18 years of age.
  • Signed, informed consent by patient or LAR within 72 hours of admission to burn center.
  • Patient is determined to be in need of NPWT for treatment of a diabetic foot ulcer, pressure injuries/pressure ulcer.
  • Patient is comfortable (e.g. not in pain)
  • Patient is willing and able to adhere to treatment protocol.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient not willing to comply with f/u clinic visits.
  • Subjects with
  • Necrotic tissue with eschar present
  • Untreated osteomyelitis
  • Non-enteric and unexplored fistulas
  • Malignancy in wound
  • Exposed vasculature
  • Exposed nerves
  • Exposed anastomotic site of blood vessels or bypasses
  • Exposed organs
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the Investigator, may be non-compliant with study schedules or procedures.
  • Patients with concurrent conditions or co-morbidities that in the opinion of the investigator may compromise patient safety or study objectives.

Primary outcomes

  1. Determine if Invia Motion Endure supports acceptable progress towards the goal of therapy for DFU and PI/PU wounds

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    Goal of the therapy will be defined by the physician according to initial assessment:

    • Decrease in wound volume
    • Decrease in size of the tunneling area
    • Decrease in size of undermining
    • Decrease in amount of slough
    • Increase in granulation tissue
    • The wound bed is progressing acceptably towards a transition to another treatment modality such as Moist Wound Healing (MWH), surgical closure, or a flap or graft.

    **Study endpoint will be determined by physician at the time of enrolment, when the goal of therapy is documented**

Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluation of ease of use and satisfaction

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    A weekly survey will be obtained from the wound clinic staff members to determine ease of use and satisfaction

Other outcomes

  1. Adequate management of the exudate

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    Measurament of exudate (ml, number of canisters used) will be performed
