This is advantageous in a plurality of situations. Firstly, it is advantageous when the drive unit is initially used for a first patient and subsequently for a second patient. By changing at least a part of the venting valve, contaminated parts may be disposed whereby the risk of transferring bacteria or viruses from the first to the second patient is reduced or even eliminated. Secondly, it is advantageous during treatment of the same patient as bacteria accumulated in the drive unit may - although originating from the same patient - cause the wound treatment to be prolonged due to inflammation. Thirdly, the reduced level of bacteria is advantageous for the supervising personnel who will be exposed to a reduced level of bacteria.
- the wound treatment device may comprise a tube for defining the drainage conduit.
- the tube may be transparent so as to allow a user to determine the content of the tube, e.g. to determine whether liquid and/or air is present in the tube or not.

However, it will be appreciated that the wound treatment device may be used in situations wherein ambient pressure is different from 1 atm., such as in a medical pressure chamber, in such situations ambient pressure is the pressure in the pressure chamber.
- an increasing vacuum shall designate a pressure below atmospheric/ambient pressure which converges towards 0 atm.
- a decreasing vacuum shall designate a pressure below ambient/atmospheric pressure which converges towards atmospheric/ambient pressure.
- the drive unit may comprise a processor of controlling the venting valve.
- the wound treatment device may comprise a senor for determining the pressure.
- the sensor may be fluidly connected to the wound bandage. Alternatively, a membrane may be interposed between the venting conduit and the sensor so as to prevent the sensor from being contaminated.
- the processor is adapted to open the venting valve at a predetermined frequency such as every 30 seconds, such as every 60 seconds, such as every 5 minutes, such as every 15 minutes, such as every half hour or such as every hour.
- the processor is programmed to operate the venting valve at different frequencies depending on the time of the day/night. As an example the processor may be programmed to operate the venting valve at a higher frequency during day than during night, such as every 30 seconds during day and every half hour during night.

- the wound treatment device (e.g. by means of its processor) may be adapted to test if the drainage conduit/tube is bent by opening the venting valve at a predetermined frequency, such as every 1 minute. If a pressure sensor is provided close to the venting valve, such a sensor will register the drop in vacuum, causing the processor to initiate operation of the pump.
- the processor may be programmed to operate the venting valve when the vacuum is above predetermined threshold, such as 50-500 mmHg below ambient pressure, such as 75 mmHg below ambient pressure, such as 100 mmHg below ambient pressure, such as 200 mmHg below ambient pressure, such as 300 mmHg below ambient pressure, such as 400 mmHg below ambient pressure.
- the processor may be programmed to operate the pressure source to maintain vacuum within a predetermined zone such as ⁇ 1 mmHg, such as ⁇ 5 mmHg, such as ⁇ 10 mmHg or such as ⁇ 20 mmHg.
- the processor is adapted to operate the pump when the pressure is 5 mmHg above the threshold (i.e. if the pressure is 45 mmHg below ambient pressure when the threshold is set to 50 mmHg), and to halt operation of the pump when the pressure is 5 mmHg below the threshold (i.e. if the pressure is 55 mmHg below ambient pressure when the threshold is set to 50 mmHg).
- the venting valve is provided in the disposable unit and said part may be fluidly connected to the wound bandage.
- the wound treatment device comprises a venting conduit for fluidly connecting the venting valve to the wound bandage.
- the venting valve may advantageously be designed such that those parts of the venting valve which may be contaminated during use, are provided in the disposable part whereby replacement of the disposable part causes contaminated parts of the venting valve to be replaced.
- the electrically controllable venting valve is arranged with respect to the drainage conduit or the wound bandage, such that opening of the valve causes air to flow downstream towards the canister from a point in the drainage conduit or in the bandage.
- the resulting air flow may cause any subject matter blocking the drainage conduit to be forced into the canister due to the pressure difference between a point upstream said subject matter and a point downstream said subject matter.
- operation of the electrically controllable venting valve may cause ambient air to be supplied to the wound bandage and/or the drainage conduit.
- ambient air is means air from a position/an area outside the apparatus according to the present invention.
- the disposable unit is detachably attachable to the drive unit, so as to allow the disposable unit to be removed/replaced.
- the canister may be emptied or replaced by the user or supervising personnel.
- a first part of the venting valve may be provided in the drive unit and a second part of the venting valve may be provided in the disposable unit.

- the orifice may be defined in an upstream end of a fluid connection, such as a venting conduit, which is connected to the wound bandage or the drainage conduit.
- the stem may be biased towards the closed position e.g. by means of a resilient element such as a spring.
- a resilient element such as a spring.
- the resilient element is adapted to bias the stem towards the open position, thus ensuring that an electrical failure does not lead to application of the vacuum in the area of the wound for an inappropriate long period.
- both the stem and the orifice is defined in the disposable part while in another embodiment the stem is defined by the drive unit while the orifice is defined in the disposable part.
- a membrane may be interposed between the orifice and the stem such that when the stem is positioned in the closed position, the orifice is closed by the membrane.
