A wound stasis and isolation apparatus 100 includes an open-cell, reticulated foam dressing 1.0 having an average pore size less than about 200 microns. A drape 1.1 is provided to cover the foam dressing and the wound. A pump 11 is positioned in fluid 5 communication with the foam dressing to draw wound exudate from the wound at a pressure less than about 125 mmHg to maintain wound drainage and moisture control at the wound but minimize tissue in-growth into the foam dressing.
