Zusammenfassung:A negative pressure wound dressing for use with breast incisions. The wound dressing includes a drape layer, a manifold layer, a base layer, and a reduced pressure interface. The drape layer has a first surface and a second, wound-facing, surface. The drape layer is substantially impermeable to liquid and substantially permeable to vapor. The manifold layer has a first surface and a second, wound-facing surface. The manifold layer has a perimeter defined by a first convex curved side surface defining a first lobe, a second convex curved side surface defining a second lobe, and a connecting portion between the first lobe and the second lobe. The base layer is configured to: (i) couple the drape layer to the manifold layer, and (ii) the dressing to a patient's tissue. The reduced pressure interface is integrated with the drape layer.
