More Information
Summary:A bridge for facilitating delivery of reduced pressure to a wound site of a patient includes a reduced pressure lumen configured to be fluidly coupled to a reduced pressure source, and a secondary pressure lumen configured to be fluidly coupled to a secondary pressure source at a first end and to the reduced pressure lumen at a second end, thereby facilitating flow of exudate removed from the wound site by the reduced pressure source using the secondary pressure source. The reduced pressure lumen or the secondary pressure lumen includes a skin contacting surface formed of a moisture permeable membrane comprising an air-impermeable film that allows moisture from the patient to transfer into the reduced pressure lumen or secondary pressure lumen through the moisture permeable membrane while maintaining reduced pressure at the wound site.
