A Disposable Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Device (SNaP) to Promote Wound Healing in the Lower Limbs Following Mohs Micrographic Surgery for Non-melanoma Skin Cancer

This clinical trial studies whether a disposable negative pressure wound therapy (dNPWT) device, SNaP Wound Care System (Ultraportable Mechanically Powered Negative Pressure Wound Therapy) (SNaP), promotes wound healing in the lower limbs in patients that have undergone Mohs micrographic surgery (Mohs surgery) for non-melanoma skin cancer. Mohs surgery is a surgical technique used to treat skin cancer. Individual layers of cancerous tissue are removed and examined under a microscope one at a time until all cancerous tissue has been removed. It is an important part of removing skin cancer, but it often leads to soft-tissue defects and reconstructive challenges, especially in high-tension areas like the lower limbs. Typically, these wounds are managed by leaving them open and allowing them to heal from the base up or are reconstructed by transferring healthy skin from another part of the body. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a wound dressing system that continuously or intermittently applies subatmospheric pressure to the surface of a wound to draw out fluid and promote healing. The SNaP device is a dNPWT device for lower leg wound healing designed for increased portability and ease of use outside of a hospital setting. It is a modification of traditional NPWT devices that uses springs to generate pressure, making it lighter and more user-friendly than traditional devices that rely on electrically powered pumps. This may be a more effective way to promote wound healing in the lower limbs following Mohs surgery for non-melanoma skin cancer.
