Healthcare professionals are tasked with the difficult mission of providing optimal patient care with decreased budgets, all while increasing patient satisfaction scores. An increase of patients with chronic wounds is one of many challenges that can impede these efforts by prolonging patients' length of stay and increasing healthcare costs.

To help achieve performance goals, healthcare organizations must expand their toolbox of negative pressure wound therapy solutions. During this webinar, attendees will hear from their peers on the practical clinical application of negative pressure wound therapies and gain business perspective about another option in negative pressure wound therapies.
