Background
• Negative pressure wound therapy– initially described for use on open wounds (1,2)– improves healing and decreases the number of complications (1,2)
• Application of negative pressure dressings onto closed surgical incisions– significant reduction in wound dehiscence, surgical site infection, and
hematoma. (3)– Improved outcome in patients at high risk for surgical wound complications
after abdominal wall reconstruction. (4)

Background
• Mechanism – Definitive mechanism of efficacy for incisional negative pressure wound
therapy (iNPWT) is not yet known • Modulation of the incisional healing environment (5)• Reduction in tension at wound margins (6) • Incisional fluid management (7)• Protected wound healing environment (8)• Changes in blood flow (7,9)
• We routinely use indocyanine green angiography for abdominal wall reconstruction
– anecdotally noted increased tissue perfusion at the wound edges.

Hypothesis
• There is an increase in tissue perfusion with the use of incisional NPWT dressings, such as Prevena. This increase may be quantifiable using ICG angiography, and may contribute to the improved complication profile.
Materials and Methods
• Retrospective case review of 5 patients – components separation abdominal wall reconstruction for massive hernia
repair – single surgeon (Dr Devinder Singh)– reconstructed with an acellular dermal matrix on lay of the fascia. – Abdominal wounds were evaluated by ICG angiography using the SPY elite
system.– Incisional NPWT dressings were removed on post-operative day 6. – Repeat bedside ICG angiography upon removal of NPWT dressing. – Student’s T test for comparison of per and post operative fluorescence.

Discussion
• Recent studies and reviews report wound healing improvement• Abdominal wall reconstruction (10)
– Lower overall wound complication and dehiscence rates with iNPWT• Wound complications 22% versus 64% (p = 0.020) • Dehiscence 9% versus 39% ( p = 0.014)
• High risk lower extremity orthopedic blunt trauma (11)– Reduced infection and dehiscence rate
• Infection rate 9.9% versus 18.9% ( p = 0.049) • Dehiscence rate 8.6% versus 16.5% (p = 0.044)
• Reported improvements in edema, fluid collections within the closed incisions, and incidence of hematoma in patients treated with incisional NPWT require further study (12)

• The mechanism by which NPWT effects the healing of open and closed wounds is believed to be multifactorial but the specific mechanisms are not fully elucidated.– Fluid model
• removal of excessive interstitial fluid containing inflammatory mediators such as matrix metalloproteinases (13)
– Mechanical model • micro and macro deformation at the wound surface causing effects similar to tissue
expansion with the release of growth factors (13)– Blood flow model
• Improvement in microvascular blood flow (14)

Discussion
• Four of our five patients treated with incisional NPWT showed a statistically significant increase in absolute fluorescence measured by indocyanine green angiography (p range <0.001 to 0.008).
• Limitations and other physiologic mechanisms considered. – Retrospective uncontrolled case series
• Absolute vs relative fluorescence • No objective sampling protocol
– Early engraftment • Controlled for with matrix on lay reconstruction
– Delay phenomenon • Clinical benefit 7 – 14 days postoperatively
Conclusions
• An increase in wound edge perfusion was observed with incisional NPWT dressing use that may contribute to the improved wound healing and complication profile previously reported. Despite the limitations, this case series illustrates an intriguing observation and opens an avenue for our future plans for research.
