Zusammenfassung:A dressing includes a manifold layer and a drape coupled to the manifold layer and configured to seal the manifold layer over a wound. The drape has an opening extending therethrough. A connection pad is positioned at the opening and configured to couple the dressing to a tube. The connection pad includes an outer ring coupled to the drape and a center dimple extending away from the drape and defining a volume between the center dimple and a plane defined by the outer ring. The dressing also includes an absorbent manifolding structure positioned between the center dimple and the manifold layer and formed to substantially match a shape of the volume.
