Conditions
Brief summary
This study evaluates surgical site complications in subjects undergoing revision of a total knee arthroplasty when closed incision negative pressure therapy is used to manage the closed incision, as compared to a standard of care dressing.
Interventions
Closed Incision Negative Pressure Therapy applied through a foam bolster with a wicking interface fabric that includes 0.019% ionic silver at 125 mmHg of negative pressure for 5-7 days.
A standard silver-impregnated dressing applied to a closed surgical incision for 5-7 days post-operatively.

Women who have had surgical sterilization by a medically accepted method such as tubal ligation, hysterectomy, or oophorectomy or are post-menopausal, defined as not having menstruation for \>= 12 months will be excluded from requiring this test. Intra-operative Inclusion Criteria: The subject: * continues to meet all pre-operative inclusion criteria * has undergone a TKA revision resulting in a closed surgical incision Pre-operative
