ABSORBENT CONDUIT AND SYSTEM

摘要

A conduit for treating a tissue site with reduced pressure may include a primary lumen and at least one secondary lumen. A wall of the conduit may include a first wall material and a second wall material. The first wall material may comprise a substantially non-absorbent material that is vapor impermeable and liquid impermeable. The second wall material may comprise an absorbent material that is vapor permeable and liquid impermeable. The second wall material may be positioned in fluid contact with the at least one secondary lumen. Other systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed.

1. A system for treating a tissue site, comprising:
a tissue interface adapted to be positioned proximate to the tissue site; a dressing, comprising:
a sealing member adapted to cover the tissue interface and the tissue site and to provide a sealed space between the sealing member and the tissue site, anda conduit interface positioned proximate to the sealing member and in fluid communication with the tissue interface; a reduced-pressure source adapted to provide a reduced pressure to the dressing; a therapy unit configured to receive a reduced-pressure feedback signal from the dressing; and a multi-lumen conduit comprising a wall carrying a primary lumen and at least one secondary lumen, the primary lumen in fluid communication between the dressing and the reduced-pressure source, the at least one secondary lumen in fluid communication between the dressing and the therapy unit, at least a portion of the wall of the multi-lumen conduit being comprised of an absorbent material that is vapor permeable and liquid impermeable.
