Claim 11:
12. A method for providing wound therapy, the method comprising:
identifying a power-on event of a wound therapy device, the wound therapy device configured to be worn by a user;
responsive to the power-on event, operating a pump of the wound therapy device in a first operating mode, the pump including at least four operating modes and the first operating mode being associated with a first drive voltage;
receiving, from a pressure sensor of the wound therapy device, pressure data indicating a pressure applied by the pump;
determining whether the pressure satisfies a first pressure threshold;
responsive to determining that the pressure satisfies the first pressure threshold, operating the pump in a second operating mode, the second operating mode associated with a second drive voltage, wherein the first drive voltage is greater than the second drive voltage;
determining whether the wound therapy device satisfies a condition; and
responsive to determining that the wound therapy device satisfies the condition, operating the pump in a third operating mode or a fourth operating mode, the third operating mode delivering a first therapeutic amount of pressure from the pump and the fourth operating mode delivering a third therapeutic amount of pressure from the pump, the first therapeutic amount of pressure and the third therapeutic amount of pressure being less than a second therapeutic amount of pressure delivered by the pump in the second operating mode,
wherein the fourth operating mode is activated in response to the condition being satisfied when a battery level of a battery of the wound therapy device fails to satisfy a battery threshold, the fourth operating mode is associated with a third drive voltage that is less than the second drive voltage, and the first therapeutic amount of pressure, the second therapeutic amount of pressure, and the third therapeutic amount of pressure are non-zero amounts of pressure.
