Abstract
This disclosure includes negative pressure wound therapy dressings with local oxygen generation for topical wound therapy. The dressings () for facilitating delivery of oxygen and application of negative pressure to target tissue include a manifold () that defines a plurality of gas passageways () and is configured to allow communication of oxygen to the target tissue; an oxygen-generating material () that is configured to release oxygen when exposed to water; a gas-occlusive layer () configured to be disposed over the manifold and the oxygen-generating material and coupled to tissue surrounding the target tissue such that an interior volume containing the manifold and the oxygen-generating material is defined between the gas-occlusive layer and the target tissue; and a port () coupled to the gas-occlusive layer and configured to be coupled to a negative pressure source.
