A wound irrigation system and method of making and using. The system uses a pored, closed-ended delivery conduit to enhance the consistency and speed with which anti-microbial or related irrigation fluids may be delivered in order to promote cleansing, debridement and biofilm reduction in wounds. The ease of use of the system as a moist wound healing cascade makes it applicable to both in-home and in-facility environments that is not offered through traditional instillation negative pressure systems. In one form, the fluid delivery conduit is used as part of a dual-conduit approach in order to also help promote the removal of drainage, waste, irrigation overflow or other fluid from the wound. Utilization of such a pored, closed-ended delivery conduit in conjunction with a separate drainage conduit infusing helps reduce the frequency of dressing changes as well as the likelihood of microorganism formation and colonization.
A wound irrigation system comprising a delivery conduit with a proximal end and a closed distal end fluidly separated by a medial portion to define an irrigation fluid flowpath thereby, the medial portion defining a plurality of apertures extending along a length and through a wall thereof such that at least a majority of an irrigation fluid that is introduced within the delivery conduit at its proximal end is placed in fluid communication with a wound bed through the medial portion.
