    Smith+Nephew ((LSE:SN, NYSE:SNN), the global medical technology company, has been selected to provide its RENASYS◊ TOUCH Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) Systems under a single award, 10-year* contract for up to $75 million by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA).

    The RENASYS TOUCH NPWT System demonstrated clinical efficacy,1,2,3,4 and operational fitness including portability,2 an intuitive interface,5,6,7 and the ability to provide a range of therapy modes, set points and cycle times that allow individualized patient care. The system will support military medical providers to administer therapy through prolonged casualty care, first surgical intervention, aeromedical transport and definitive care in military treatment facilities. RENASYS TOUCH NPWT is manufactured in the United States.  



    "Future conflicts will be more difficult and complex. This implies medical devices and treatments will need to be simplified and more intuitive to be used farther forward by a wide range of providers. RENASYS TOUCH NPWT will provide that simplified negative pressure wound therapy solution to the military care continuum for warfighters who need it most," said Dennis Lyons, MSG (ret), SO-ATP and Sr. Director Military & Federal Health for Smith+Nephew. 

    In 2024, Smith+Nephew announced the entry into a Master Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with the U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research (USAISR) to partner to transform wound and burn care across the military care continuum.8 

    Smith+Nephew has a longstanding history of supporting military medical needs beginning with the First Field Dressing dating back to World War I. This legacy continues to evolve, meeting the growing needs of both civilian and military healthcare providers and patients. Today, our commitment to innovation in wound care continues through an extensive Advanced Wound Management portfolio designed to meet complex clinical needs and help healthcare providers reduce human and economic consequences of wounds.2
