A system for protecting a person's facial skin from contaminants due to the application of makeup is disclosed. The system may include one or more patches that may be applied to the person's eyelids, cheeks, lips or other locations, upon which makeup may then be applied. In this way the makeup is applied to the top surface of the patches and not directly to the person's skin. The system may thereby prevent microbes (e.g., bacteria, viruses, etc.) from being transferred from the makeup and/or the makeup applicator to the person's skin.

A system includes a set of passenger seat devices in a transport unit and a control unit. In order to permit an identification of seat locations to be changeable, a communication unit exchanges data between the set of passenger seat devices and the control unit. The control unit is provided in order to detect a current seat location arrangement as a function of data of the set of passenger seat devices. A method for seat location identification in a transport unit with a set of passenger seat devices is also provided.

A production system of a water-absorbent core. The supplying component thereof is configured to convey the fluffy cotton to the starting end of the transmission component, and the plurality of outlets of the supplying component for conveying the mixture of the fluff pulp and the hot-melt fibers to the transmission component are all located in the middle portion of the transmission component, the feeding port for conveying the super absorbent polymer to the transmission component and the outlets are arranged alternately along the transmitting direction of the transmission component, and each feeding port is located between the two outlets; the vacuum adsorption device can cause the mixture to be absorbed on the transmission component; the hot air penetration device performs hot air penetration treatment on the laminate; and the ultrasonic cutting device of the slitting mechanism is configured to ultrasonically cut the laminate after the hot air penetration treatment.

The disclosure relates to a device for vaginal drug delivery. More particularly, the device relates to a tampon engaged or engageable device, having a dissolvable elongated housing which is adapted with an axial cavity sized to surround a tampon, and having a fixed or removably engaged dissolvable capsule located at a distal end of the housing. So positioned, the device delivers medications such as prescription and non prescription drugs, neuroceuticals, and supplements and the like, directly to the vaginal tract which is especially useful in treating ailments in the same region by such a direct communication of the medication thereto.

According to one embodiment, an absorbent article includes a moisture-impervious outer layer, an inner layer substantially co-extensive with the outer layer, and an absorbent layer interposed between the outer layer and the inner layer. The inner layer is treated with at one least substance including dimethicone and/or at least one antimicrobial booster. The absorbent layer is treated with at least one antimicrobial agent.

The inventive subject matter provides compositions and methods for transiently or permanently treating or managing an injury. Contemplated compositions are polymerizable in situ over short time periods, even in the presence of blood, without undue exothermic heat. Contemplated compositions may further comprise an anesthetic, an antiseptic, an adhesion promoter, and/or a vasoconstrictor.

A hemostatic device includes a flexible band adapted to be wrapped around a patient's limb at a site on the limb where bleeding is to be stopped, a portion for securing the band in a wrapped state to the limb, a curved plate which is made of a material more rigid than the band and at least a portion of which is curved toward the inner peripheral side thereof, a main balloon which is provided on the inner peripheral side of the curved plate and which inflates when a fluid is introduced therein, and a pressing member which is provided between the curved plate and the main balloon so that at least a portion thereof overlaps with the balloon and which is adapted for pressing against the balloon. The device provides an excellent hemostatic effect and prevents numbness and poor circulation in areas peripheral to the site of attachment.

A film having low pressure values is provided. The film may have from about 20 wt. % to about 75 wt. % of a polyolefin component, from about 5 wt. % to about 35 wt. % of an elastomeric resin, and from about 20 wt. % to about 45 wt. % of a particle component. The film may have a basis weight of from about 5 gsm to about 25 gsm. The film may have a predicted sound pressure level over the frequency octave range of 2000 Hz-6300 Hz of less than about 43 dB.

A wound dressing and method of use is provided that increases healing of tissues by targeting damaged tissue at a predetermined wavelength. The device includes the use of a negative pressure bandage, a flexible light sheet, and one or more bioactive marine extracts. Light emitted from the flexible light sheet penetrates through the bandage to target damaged tissue, which accelerates the wound healing process and works synergistically with the negative pressure bandage and bioactive marine extracts such as collagen fibers, alginate, chitosan and fucoidan, or any combination thereof to accelerate healing.
