New data from a randomized controlled trial with at-risk patients further affrms that Prevena Therapy significantly reduces the risk of 90-day surgical site complications (SSCs) and readmissions, when compared with the current standard of care (SOC). In fact, the evidence supporting the efficacy of Prevena Therapy was so strong that the study was terminated before its planned completion.¹
