Devices, systems, and methods for instillation of foamed fluid with negative pressure wound therapy

An apparatus for treating a wound comprising:

• a drape configured to be coupled to skin adjacent the wound and form a chamber between the drape and the wound;
• a wound insert comprising an open-cell reticulated foam configured to be disposed within the chamber;
• a vacuum source adapted to selectively apply a negative air pressure to the chamber;
• a source of fluid adapted to selectively provide a foamed fluid containing a first fluid and a second fluid to the chamber, wherein the source of fluid is configured to mix the first fluid and the second fluid within the source of fluid to produce the foamed fluid;
• a conduit having a first end adapted to be fluidly coupled to the chamber and a second end adapted to be fluidly coupled to the source of fluid and the vacuum source;
• and
• a single valve coupled to the second end of the conduit in fluid communication with the chamber, the vacuum source, and the source of fluid, wherein the valve is selectively actionable to permit fluid communication through the conduit between the chamber and either the vacuum source to provide the negative air pressure or the source of fluid to supply the foamed fluid.
