Zusammenfassung:Abstract A wound treatment apparatus promotes healing of a wound via the use of a negative pressure system. The negative pressure system applies negative pressure to the wound through perforations in a contact layer of a wound dressing. The wound dressing also includes a capillary layer and an absorbent layer above the contact layer. The capillary layer allows transmission of fluid away from the wound site. The absorbent layer comprises a super absorbent polymer material and forms a reservoir for fluid removed from the wound site. Date Recue/Date Received 2020-10-21
