Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if the use of a single-use negative pressure wound therapy system (NPWT) will have an effect on the reduction of post-surgical incision healing complications following breast reduction surgery and to assess the medium-term aesthetic appearance and quality of the resultant scar, compared with standard of care dressings.

Primary Outcome

The primary variable of whether or not the incision developed a healing complication within 21 days of surgery was defined as the presence of at least one of the following: 1. Infection (superficial or deep), 2. Dehiscence (partial, superficial or deep), 3. Delayed healing (defined as incision not closed within 7 days of the first surgical procedure). All participants received both PICO and standard care dressings simultaneously during the course of the study; randomized to either right breast
