Negative-pressure system incorporating wound diagnostic capabilities

A system for treating a tissue site, comprising:

• a dressing adapted to be placed on the tissue site;
• a negative-pressure source adapted to be fluidly coupled to the dressing;
• a container having a fluid inlet adapted to be fluidly coupled to the dressing, a fluid outlet adapted to be fluidly coupled to the negative-pressure source, and a collection chamber to receive fluid from the tissue site
• a sensor compartment disposed within the container between the collection chamber and the fluid outlet, the sensor compartment having a fluid pathway fluidly coupled to the fluid outlet and a purge pathway configured to be fluidly coupled to an ambient environment;
• a sensor module removably positioned in the fluid pathway of the sensor compartment and adapted to be exposed to gas associated with the fluid from the tissue site, wherein the sensor module comprises a first sensor configured to detect a condition of the tissue site and to generate a first output based on the detected condition;
• a transceiver electrically coupled to the sensor module and configured to transmit the first output from the sensor module;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• receive the first output from the transceiver;
• generate a data entry based on the detected condition;
• and
• in response to the detected condition, adjust a provided therapy.
