Abstract

A wound therapy system includes a dressing an instillation pump fluidly communicable with the dressing and configured to provide instillation fluid to the dressing, a negative pressure pump fluidly communicable with the dressing and configured to remove air from the dressing, and a control circuit communicably coupled to the instillation pump and the negative pressure pump. The control circuit is configured to control the instillation pump to provide an amount of the instillation fluid to the dressing, provide a soak period, and control the negative pressure pump to provide a cyclic variation of negative pressure at the dressing.
