Zusammenfassung:	Negative pressure wound therapy systems, apparatuses, and methods for operating the systems and apparatuses are disclosed. In some cases, the system can include a dressing having electronic circuitry that wirelessly communicates a dressing identifier and/or other dressing information to a controller of a pump assembly of the system. The controller can automatically modify one or more operational parameters of the pump assembly based on the dressing identifier and/or other dressing information wirelessly communicated. Duration of time over which the dressing has been in use can be monitored and provision of therapy by the pump assembly can be disabled responsive to a determination that the duration of time has reached operational lifetime of the dressing.
