摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a photocurable composition for 3D printing for producing a patient-specific splint or cast. The photocurable composition easily produces a splint or cast conforming to the patient's body shape using 3D printing and makes it possible to adjust the immobilizing force of the splint or cast. In addition, the present disclosure provides a patient-specific splint or cast using a photocurable composition for 3D printing, which may produce a splint or cast, which may provide a necessary degree of compression by adjusting the immobilizing force thereof and is attachable and detectable as needed.

A bandage for improved wound care is disclosed. The bandage comprises a non-adherent, deformable inner layer, a leak-proof outer layer that is substantially coextensive with the inner layer, and an absorbent middle layer contacting both the inner and outer layers. An adhesive strip and adhesive tabs along the bandage's side attach and adjust the fit of the bandage to securely hold the absorbent layer in contact with the wound, without any adhesive touching the skin, thereby eliminating pain and discomfort upon removal or replacement. The bandage allows substantial freedom of motion without slipping. The adhesive strip and tabs secure the bandage in place without any adhesive touching the skin, thereby providing convenience and causing no pain or discomfort upon removal or replacement of the bandage. The bandage may use a non-stick netting material layer to improve patient comfort, and elastic cuffs to improve fit and leakage.
摘要:
A multi layer compression bandage comprises an inner wound facing layer (11), comprising a knit of viscose fibre yarns including bacteriostatic yarns containing a silver-based bactericide; an intermediate layer (12), which provides a spacer layer, substantially as described in WO 95/16416 and including auxetic materials, and an outer layer (13) of viscose and/or cotton yams, having an outer cohesive coating (14) of an adhesive.

There is disclosed an extensible article comprising an extensible fabric and an indicator for showing when the fabric has reached a predetermined degree of extension, a method for forming such articles and a method of treatment of venous disorders comprising applying said article to an affected site on a patient.
摘要:
There is disclosed a woven bandage which exhibits a crepe effect and which contains elastomeric yarns and composite warp yarns (1) wherein the composite yarns comprise a staple fibre yarn (2) and a textured filament yarn (3) twisted together. The staple fibre yarn (2) forms loops (4) which gives the bandage a crepe effect. There is also described a process for manufacture of such bandages.

A system and method for donning and labeling a body cast provides a protective body cast that is labeled. The system and method provides a protective body cast that forms padded protection around the body of a bedridden patient; and especially around the hip, buttock, and lower extremity pressure points. The body cast is composed of a nanomaterial and serves as an envelope for an inner lining of a softer material such as a composite foam rubber. The body cast is sectioned into a multi-layered enclosing cloth support wrap that is fabricated from a nanomaterial, an inner surface having padding, and at least one auxiliary padding that detachably attaches to the body cast for additional padding. Labels detachably attach to the lower portion of the support wrap for indicating information pertinent to the patient. A caregiver accesses the label to read and mark directly on a bedridden patient.

A transdermal medicament patch includes a biocompatible substrate having a therapeutic face on one side configured for disposition against the skin of a patient, a biocompatible adhesive on the therapeutic face, a planar medicament matrix covering a portion of the therapeutic face, and a release liner covering the portion of therapeutic that is not obscured by the medicament matrix. An aperture formed through the release sheet affords direct access by medicament to the entire surface of the medicament matrix opposite from the therapeutic face of the substrate. An active electrode positioned between the medicament matrix and the therapeutic face of the substrate includes an electrically conductive backing layer positioned against the therapeutic face of the substrate and a pH-control layer covering less than all of the side of the backing layer opposite from the therapeutic face of the substrate. One active electrode design criterion relates the relative size of the pH-control layer to the size of the backing layer; another relates the size of portion of the area of the backing layer that is free of the pH-control lawyer to the size of the pH-control layer. The pH-control layer is made of an electrically conductive material capable of moderating changes in the hydrogen-ion concentration in the medicament matrix during iontophoretic current flow. An electrical contact electrically coupled through the substrate to the backing layer includes a hollow, electrically conductive snap fitting having an open end and a cooperating stud that is inserted into the open end of the snap.
摘要:
A material for a product for the compression of body parts includes a two-dimensional base body. At least one linear protuberance, which extends longitudinally in a basic direction, is formed on at least one flat side of this base body. The at least one protuberance has at least one section which is aligned obliquely and/or transversely to its basic direction.

A breathable, comfortable, elastic pressure sensitive, permanent tacky, adhesive bandaging material is disclosed. The material includes a fabric formed of stretch and non-stretch filling and warp yarns which are coated with a release agent, a stiffening agent, and an adhesive material. Both the agents and adhesive material are applied to the backside of the fabric, with a small amount of the release agent being absorbed through the fabric to the face surface thereof. The adhesive material may include a solvent which tends to plasticize the stiffening agent to a small degree when applied thereto. The resulting bandaging material exhibits characteristics of good tearability along with a relatively soft face surface and an improved hand. The material is manufactured by applying the agents and adhesive to the fabric when the fabric is in a relaxed state. When subsequently stretched, the adhesive is pulled into a random, nonuniform and discontinuous layer. The present invention is particularly useful for wrapping a user's limb in a plurality of layers such as is commonly done for protection or support during participation in a strenuous activity such as an athletic event.
摘要:
A unitary medical dressing is provided which includes a generally elastic bandage wrap configured for rapid attachment to a wearer, a generally inelastic absorbent pad affixed to the bandage wrap, a medicated, non-adherent gauze mesh affixed to the absorbent pad opposite the bandage wrap, and an adhesive affixed to the perimeter of the gauze mesh so as to adhere to the wearer's skin.
