Prevena Therapy is designed to manage and help protect the surgical incision and reduce the risk of surgical site complications to improve patient outcomes across multiple surgical specialties.1-11 This can also help to reduce the burden on healthcare facilities through reduced reoperations 2,5,8 and associated additional costs of treatment.10,11,
In a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial with patients undergoing breast reconstruction, Prevena Therapy aided in:
90-day post-operatively
8.5% (28/331) Prevena Therapy vs.
15.9% (53/334) SOC (p=0.0092)*
90-day post-operatively
2.1% (7/331) Prevena Therapy vs.
4.5% (15/334) SOC (p=0.0225)
90-days post-operatively
1.8% (6/331) Prevena Therapy vs.
5.7% (19/334) SOC (p=0.0106)*
Calculations are derived based on relative patient group incidence rate reported in this study.
*Statistically significant (p<0.05).
