Thanks for your response, I should clarify that we would not supercede doctor's orders, however, as a medical supply/DME provider, we want to offer our referral sources (case managers / discharge planners) a number of choices to accommodate different patient / wound scenarios. That is why I am seeking your experiences with different equipment. Somebody tell me what's the difference between a wound vac (generic term) and a suction device for wounds. Am I talking apples and oranges here? What about the Medela unit. They are well regarded for their breast pumps, but what about their wound care products?

Please continue...we are a HH/DME/Infusion provider, and I've just begun exploring the KCI and Blue Sky products. It appears that there are strengths and weaknesses regarding different scenarios (e.g., tunneling wounds, KCI patented sponges), but we would like to purchase this equipment, which is not possible with KCI (to my limited knowledge). The problem is that KCI appears to be more well known in this area, so what can I offer re: Blue Sky as an alternative?
