Abstract
VAC studies have always been unclear due to lack of content and its actual use for wounds. Conventional VAC therapy is usually an exorbitant pick due to high priced machines and unnecessary hospital stay irrespective of the wound size. Meanwhile, the larger sized wounds would definitely need a proper hospital stay, a VAC machine a healthcare worker who knows to handle it; why not use a handy equipment for smaller sized wounds which could be handled by the patient itself? Enter, HANDY-VAC, a low cost equipment which is convenient, requires no hospital stay and most importantly can be handled by the patient itself.
