Introduction

This guide is intended to give a clinician/caregiver instruction on 

how to apply the Kalypto Medical 140cc Dressing for use with 

the NPD 1000 NPWT System. The NPD 1000 Dressing Technology is 

a state-of-the-art product that delivers the benefits of negative 

pressure therapy with a disposable fluid-absorbing dressing. It is 

best used on wounds occurring on anatomical surfaces which will 

allow the dressing to seal appropriately when vacuum is applied.  

Highly curved surfaces such as those found below the ankle or 

on the hand may create difficulties in achieving an adequate 

vacuum seal.
