Abstract: Devices and methods for skin graft harvesting are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, substrates for transplanting skin grafts are disclosed that include a soft-tack, biocompatible composition having a surface adapted to contact at least one excised skin graft and engage the graft for removal from a donor site. In another aspect of the invention, at least a portion of the skin-contacting surface of the substrate (or dressing) is porous to facilitate fluid transport into (or out of) the graft site during harvesting and/or transplantation. The substrates can also incorporate an absorbent component to capture fluids. The substrate can be a mesh or fabric or web, e.g. woven, knitted, nonwoven or molded. The substrate can be a mesh of biocompatible fibers, for example, cellulosic, polyolefins, polyurethanes, polyesters or polyamide fibers. In one embodiment the mesh is formed of cellulose acetate fibers and coated with a silicone gel, to imparted the desire degree of tackiness.

Abstract: Dressings, systems, and methods to facilitate the application of reduced pressure to an extremity, such as heel, on a patient are provided. In one instance, a dressing for treating an extremity on a patient includes a drape envelope, a transport manifold, and a pouch. The drape envelope has an outer drape member, inner drape member, and an interior portion between the outer drape member and the inner drape member. The inner drape member has fenestrations on at least an application portion. The transport manifold is disposed within the interior portion of the drape envelope. The pouch is for receiving the extremity and includes the drape envelope and a pouch-forming attachment. The dressing allows reduced pressure to be initially supplied at a remote location from the wound and avoid leaks. Other systems, methods, and apparatuses are disclosed.

Abstract: Skin graft harvesting systems and methods are disclosed that utilize sensors to automate the harvesting of skin grafts or assist a user in deciding when the skin graft is ready to be harvested. Such systems and methods can reduce the burden of visual observation and ensure greater reliability and consistency of the grafts. The invention is particularly useful with harvesters that rely upon suction and/or heating to raise a plurality of small or “micro” blisters simultaneously.
