3M Prevena Therapy for general surgery
Enhanced general surgery outcomes with Prevena Therapy
A peer-reviewed meta-analysis of 22 studies for various abdominal surgical procedures demonstrated Prevena Therapy helped significantly reduce the risk of various surgical site complications (SSCs) while helping to improve health economic outcomes compared to standard-of-care dressings.¹
Reduction in SSCs,1*
11 studies; p<0.003†
Reduction in surgical site infections (SSIs),1*
20 studies; p<0.001†
Reduction in readmission,1*
7 studies; p=0.014†
*Relative risk reduction.
†Calculation(s) are derived based on the relative patient group incidence rate reporting in this study. Statistically significant (p<0.05).

Indication(s) For Use / Intended Use:
The 3M™ Prevena™ Plus 125 Therapy Unit, when used with 3M™ Prevena™ Dressings (3M™ Prevena™ Plus Incision Management System), is intended to manage the environment of closed surgical incisions and surrounding intact skin in patients at risk for developing post-operative complications, such as infection, by maintaining a closed environment via the application of a negative pressure wound therapy system to the incision.
