A negative pressure wound therapy system creates a negative pressure environment in the opening of a wound-dressing unit and a positive pressure environment in the collecting bag. Then a positive pressure detecting procedure is proceeded in the positive pressure environment and a negative pressure detecting procedure is proceeded in the negative pressure environment. The detecting results are sent to determine whether a micro pump is stopped.

Negative pressure wound therapy system

A wound drainage therapy system includes a wound seal unit, a fluid collector unit, a vacuum driving unit and an actuator. The fluid collector unit is detachably connected with the wound seal unit, and the fluid collector unit has a multiple-pipe integration module and a collection bag. The multiple-pipe integration module has a first row connection port group and a second row connection port group. The vacuum driving unit has a vacuum generator. The actuator has a motor, a negative pressure detector and a positive pressure detector, wherein the motor is used to drive the vacuum generator to operate and the motor is detachably connected with the vacuum generator. A connection port of the negative pressure detector and a connection port of the positive pressure detector are detachably connected with another two connection ports of the second row connection port group respectively.

Wound drainage therapy system

A fluid collector has a container, a T-tube, a first screw unit and a second screw unit. The T-tube is connected to the container and has a main pipe and a branch pipe. The first screw unit is mounted in an outlet end of the main pipe. The second screw unit is mounted in a connecting end of the branch pipe, which is connected to the main pipe. The branch pipe has a detecting opening far from the connecting end and connects to a detecting device. By changing the length of the first and second screw units, different detecting values of the pressure are adjusted according to containers with different capacities. Moreover, with the flowing resistance resulting from the first and second screw units, different pressure variations are performed when liquid or air passes through the T-tube. Therefore, massive hemorrhage is clearly identified to keep the patient safe.

Fluid collector

A collector for a negative pressure wound therapy system has a soft collecting bag with a gas-permeable unit and a liquid absorber. The collecting bag is connected to a wound-dressing unit via an inlet connecting set and is connected to a sensor assembly via a detecting connecting set. With the soft collecting bag, the collector occupies less volume. By the gas-permeable unit and the liquid absorber, the liquid and gas entering into the collecting bag quickly isolate. Moreover, multiple collectors connect in series to form a collector combination to reduce the frequency to replace the collector combination so that a longer usage time of the collector combination is available.
