A Pilot Study of Negative Pressure Therapy with Autologous Skin Cell Suspensions in a Porcine Model

Abstract

These data suggest the positive attributes of the cellular suspension delivered are retained following the application of negative pressure. Re-epithelialization, revascularization, and repigmentation are not adversely impacted. The use of NPWT may be considered as an option when using ASCS with mSTSGs for the treatment of full-thickness burns.
