Systems and methods for improved connection to wound dressings in conjunction with reduced pressure wound treatment systems

摘要

Described are improvements to the structure and functionality of a reduced pressure adapter (22) used to connect a distribution manifold (24) and a reduced pressure source instrumentation (16) in a reduced pressure wound treatment (RPWT) system. The reduced pressure adapter (22) reduces instances of unintentional liquid ingress into ancillary lumens of a reduced pressure delivery tube, while channeling the liquid to a primary lumen of the reduced pressure delivery tube.
