Intended use

llI
The Invia Liberty Wound Therapy is indicated to help promote wound healing, through means
including drainage and removal of infectious material or other fluids, under the influence of
continuous and/or intermittent negative pressures, particularly for patients with chronic, acute,
traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic or
pressure), flaps and grafts.
Invia Liberty is portable and can be operated independent of the mains thanks to a recharge-
able battery. Acoustic and optical signals are triggered for variances from the set values as well
as for faults.
