1. A low-profile device for delivering reduced pressure to a load-bearing wound site, comprising:

  • a distal port configured to connect to a wound dressing positioned over the wound site;

    a proximal port located a distance from the distal port and configured to connect to a reduced pressure source, wherein when the distal port is applied to the wound dressing positioned over the wound site the proximal port is positioned at a non-load bearing location remote from the wound dressing; and

    a conduit body comprising an inner channel extending between the distal port and the proximal port, wherein the inner channel has a non-circular profile having a width larger than a height of the conduit body.
