Portable wound treatment system

Abstract

A portable wound treatment system that includes a treatment device and a portable generator that may be used for debridement of target tissue to remove devitalized tissue, manage bacterial biofilm, control the bacterial load, and facilitate wound closure and healing. The treatment device includes a handle, an interior cavity for receiving a conductive fluid, such as a saline solution, a conductive element disposed within the interior cavity, and a plurality of apertures configured to allow passage of the conductive fluid from the interior cavity. The portable generator generates and transmits energy to the conductive element, which is then carried by the conductive fluid passing through one or more of the apertures for coagulation and/or ablation of a target tissue.
