Summary

The objective of this study is to compare standard negative pressure wound therapy with negative pressure wound therapy coupled with instillation for optimal skin graft take. Either the V.A.C ULTA NPWT or V.A.C. VeraFlo Therapy systems with normal saline will be applied intra-operatively to split-thickness skin grafts of upper and lower extremity wounds and kept in place for a duration of four days. Following completion of four days, the skin graft with be assessed for percentage of take/adherence and will be covered with simple gauze dressings as needed.
