A bandage (10) is provided for use with a wound (12) having a wound surface (13). The bandage (10) is connectable to a vacuum source (14) and may include a flexible cover (18) positioned over the wound (12) and a collar coupled to the cover (18). The cover (18) includes a port (92) and is configured to seal to a patient's healthy skin (15) surrounding the wound (12). The collar (20, 120) maybe coupled to the cover (18) and include a passageway (22) in communication with the port (92) of the cover (18). The passageway (22) is configured to receive at least a portion of a tube (24) in communication with the vacuum source (14). The bandage (10) may also include a sealer (82, 96) coupled to the collar (20, 120). The sealer (82, 96) may be configured to provide a substantially airtight seal between the tube (24) and the passageway (22) to create a sealed environment capable of maintaining a negative pressure between the cover (18) and the wound surface (13).
L'invention porte sur un pansement (10) s'appliquant sur une blessure (12) présentant une plaie (13 ) d'une certaine surface (13). Ledit pansement (10) peut se raccorder à une source de vide (14) et comprendre une couverture souple (18) se plaçant sur la plaie (12) et un collier (20, 120 ) solidaire de la couverture (18). La couverture (18), est munie d'un orifice (92) de succion, et conçue pour adhérer à la peau (15) saine du patient entourant la blessure (12). Le collier (20, 120), qui peut être relié à la couverture, comporte un passage (22) communiquant avec l'orifice (92) ménagé dans la couverture, ledit passage (22) étant conçu pour recevoir au moins une partie d'un tube (24) communiquant avec la source de vide (14), et constituant une barrière sensiblement étanche entre le tube (24) et le passage (22). Le pansement (10) peut également comprendre un élément étanche (82, 96) couplé au collier (20, 120), et conçu pour former une barrière sensiblement étanche entre le tube (24) et le passage (22), créant ainsi entre la couverture (18) et la plaie (13) une zone isolée maintenue sous une pression négative.
