A porous pad is installed in the previously treated wound in order to conduct vacuum therapy. To close the wound defect, a sealed covering material is needed, which in turn covers the undamaged areas of the skin. Therapy with the use of alternating negative pressure passes into its further stage. The technical solution stated in this article has a positive effect, because it assumes ease of operation, as well as improving the quality of vacuum therapy of wounds using alternating negative pressure. This happens due to the modeling of the optimal shape of the porous lining in accordance with the configuration and localization of the wound cavity with the additional possibility of its irrigation with antiseptic and medicinal solutions.
