3M Prevena Peel and Place Incision Management System
An incision management system pairing a Prevena Therapy Unit with a Peel and Place Dressing, for linear incisions up to 20 centimetres long.
The 3M Prevena Peel and Place Incision Management System combines a Prevena 125 Therapy Unit with a Prevena Peel and Place Dressing in a single kit, designed for postoperative use on linear surgical incisions up to 20 centimetres long. Once the dressing is applied and connected to the therapy unit, the system delivers continuous negative 125 millimetres of mercury pressure over the closed incision across various anatomical locations, supporting the healing environment during the early postoperative period when surgical site complications are most likely to develop.
Bundling the therapy unit and matching dressing into one kit simplifies ordering and stock management for surgical and postoperative teams compared with sourcing each component separately. This system is generally used for patients identified as being at higher risk of surgical site infection or other incisional complications, rather than applied as a routine measure for every closed incision.
It is supplied under two catalog numbers, likely reflecting different pack configurations or dressing widths within the same 20 centimetre incision length rating.
