KCI Enters into Agreement with 3M Health Care

Kinetic Concepts Inc (San Antonio, Tex) entered into an agreement with 3M Health Care (St. Paul, Minn) for the supply of 3M Tegaderm™ brand transparent film dressings for inclusion in KCI kits with KCI’s V.A.C.® Therapy System in the treatment of complex, hard-to-heal wounds. The newly designed Tegaderm dressing that was configured exclusively for use with V.A.C. Therapy will provide a skin-friendly interface that conforms to the body and flexes with skin for greater patient comfort. Healthcare professionals will find the Tegaderm dressing easier to apply.
Tegaderm will be packaged with a newly designed and configured GranuFoam® dressing, which will enhance the performance and reliability of V.A.C. Therapy. The first V.A.C. Therapy dressings featuring the Tegaderm brand transparent film dressings are expected to be available the fourth quarter of 2008.
