Abstract

A method for providing negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and phototherapy to a wound includes providing NPWT by drawing a negative pressure at the wound using a pump. The method also includes providing phototherapy by operating a light source to provide light having a specific wavelength to the wound. Drawing the negative pressure at the wound for NPWT changes a surface topology of the wound to expose different surfaces of the wound to the light for phototherapy.
