The PICO(TM) dressing system is well accepted by most patients, although some patients express concerns about inconvenience and lack of information.
The PICO (TM) dressing utilizes incisional negative pressure wound therapy in reducing surgical site infection after vascular surgery; however, no patient-reported investigations are available. The objective was to explore patients experiences wearing the PICO (TM) dressing for 7 days. Nine men and 6 women were interviewed, and analysis was conducted using qualitative content analysis. The PICO (TM) dressing system was well accepted by most patients. Most prominent problems were fear of dropping the pump to the floor, lack of information, and initial feelings of uncertainty. Four patients who had the PICO (TM) and standard dressing in opposite groins simultaneously, preferred the PICO (TM) dressing.
