摘要:
Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to negative pressure treatment systems and wound dressing systems, apparatuses, and methods that may be used for the treatment of wounds. In particular, some embodiments are directed to improved wound dressings comprising an obscuring layer that may hide fluid contained therein. Some embodiments may further comprise one or more viewing windows disposed therethrough so as to enable monitoring or examination of fluids contained therein.

A system (10) for providing reduced-pressure treatment to a moveable tissue site, such as a joint (18), includes a flexible dressing bolster (32). The flexible dressing bolster has a first side and a second, inward-facing side (36), and a plurality of flexion joints (40) formed on the flexible dressing bolster. The system further includes a sealing subsystem (60) for providing a fluid seal over the flexible dressing bolster and the patient's epidermis and a reduced-pressure subsystem (80) for delivering a reduced pressure to the sealing subsystem. The sealing subsystem and reduced-pressure subsystem are operable to deliver a reduced pressure to the moveable tissue site. The flexible dressing bolster is operable to allow articulation or movement of the moveable tissue site. The sealing subsystem may include a drape (62) with folds. Other systems, apparatuses, and methods are presented.
摘要:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wundauflage und ein Verfahren zum Herstellen einer Wundauflage mit einem Markermaterial zum Anzeigen eines Zustands einer Wunde, insbesondere eines mikrobiologischen Wundmilieus. Die Erfindung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Wundauflage eine Auflageseite aufweist, welche durch ein biokompatibles Monofilamentgewebe aus Monofilamentfäden mit einer glatten Oberfläche gebildet ist, und dass auf dem Monofilamentgewebe an seiner von der Wunde abgewandten Oberseite mindestens ein Deckelement angebracht ist, welches mit dem Markermaterial versehen ist.

A system (610) uses reduced pressure to provide a therapeutic force to a person's breast area. The system includes a dressing assembly (630) shaped and configured to be placed on the breast area, a releaseable circumferential connector for holding the dressing assembly against at least a portion of the breast area, and a sealing subsystem (660) for providing a fluid seal over the dressing assembly against a person's epidermis. The system may further include a reduced- pressure subsystem (680) for providing reduced pressure to the dressing assembly. When reduced pressure is supplied, the system generates a force against at least a portion of the breast area of the person. The dressing assembly may be formed as a brassiere (612) having a first cup and a second cup formed from a bolster material.
摘要:
Disclosed is a wound dressing which can retain exudate to prevent it from spreading over a larger area while maintaining a moist environment, can be easily peeled off after use, can prevent skin redness, heat rash, or offensive smell, and can fit various shapes of wound surfaces. The wound dressing is provided with a liquid-permeable layer (1) on the surface to be used to face a wound site (15). The liquid-permeable layer (1) comprises a resin surface sheet (10). The surface sheet (10) comprises a first surface (11) which is to face the wound site (15), a second surface (12) which is the opposite surface to the first surface, and a large number of penetration pores (13) penetrating through the sheet from the first surface (11) to the second surface (12) in the thickness direction. The penetration pores (13) allow the permeation of a liquid from the first surface (11) to the second surface (12). The first surface (11) is hydrophobic.

The invention relates to a drainage device (100), for the treatment of wounds with application of a vacuum, comprising: a gas-tight wound dressing element (3), which when applied to the body of the patient is fixed around the wound region to the skin surface by adhesive and forms a remaining wound space between the wound and the wound dressing element (3), at least one drainage tube (4) which may be connected to the vacuum generation means and which may be inserted in the wound chamber roughly parallel to the wound dressing element (3) and at least one absorption body (2) in the form of at least one layer (7) of a piece of textile (33), interspersed with superabsorbent particles, set in an envelope. The absorbed wound secretions, depending on the pore size of the envelope, remaining within the absorption body (2) and hence under the wound dressing element (3), until removal of the absorption body from the wound space. An air passage (34) is provided for the wound dressing element (3).
