    Abstract This article provides an introduction to the theory of, what is termed, the 'influence zone' in the context of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT). It is a quantitative bioengineering performance measure for NPWT systems, to indicate their effectiveness, namely, how far from the wound bed edges a specific system is able to deliver effective mechano-stimulation into the periwound, and at which intensity. The influence zone therefore provides objective and standardised metrics of one of the fundamental modes of action of NPWT systems: the ability to effectively and optimally deform both the wound and periwound macroscopically and microscopically. Most important is the mechanical deformation of the periwound area to activate cells responsible for tissue repair, particularly (myo)fibroblasts. Notably, the influence zone must extend sufficiently into the periwound to stimulate (myo)fibroblasts in order that they migrate and progress the wound healing process, facilitating the formation of scar tissue, without overstretching the periwound tissues so as not cause or escalate further cell and tissue damage. The inclusion of the influence zone theory within research to investigate the efficacy of NPWT systems facilitates systematic comparisons of commercially available and potentially new systems. This approach has the capacity to guide not only research and development work, but also clinical decision-making. Recently published research found that inducing an effective influence zone first and foremost requires continuous delivery of the intended pressure to the wound bed.

    Abstract Alleviation of localised, sustained tissue loads and microclimate management are the most critical performance criteria for materials in use for pressure ulcer prevention, such as in prophylactic dressings, padding or cushioning. These material performance criteria can be evaluated by calculating the extents of matching between the material stiffness (elastic modulus) and the thermal conductivity of the protective dressing, padding or cushioning with the corresponding properties of native skin, separately or in combination. Based on these bioengineering performance criteria, hydrocolloids, which are commonly used for prophylaxis of medical device-related pressure ulcers, exhibit poor stiffness matching with skin. In addition, there is remarkable variability in the modulus and thermal conductivity matching levels of different material types used for pressure ulcer prevention, however, it appears that among the materials tested, hydrogels provide the optimal matching with skin, followed by gels and silicone foams. The stiffness matching for hydrocolloids appears to be inferior even to that of gauze. This article provides quantitative performance criteria and metrics for these evaluations, and grades commonly used material types to biomechanically guide clinicians and industry with regards to the selection of dressings for pressure ulcer prevention, both due to bodyweight forces and as a result of applied medical devices.
