A medical dressing is provided. The dressing has a central portion and a border portion, and comprises a backing layer, an adhesive body contact layer and a pad arranged in the central portion between the backing layer and the adhesive body contact layer. The pad is symmetric about a longitudinal center line and the dressing comprises a lobed portion on each side of the center line. The medical dressing comprises a gripping tab which is coplanar with the border portion and which projects outwardly from the border portion. The medical dressing may be used for pressure ulcer prevention, such as at the sacrum region of a human body.

A medical kit (100) includes a package (105) having a housing (501) and a lid (103). One or more medical implements (1001,1101,1201,1301) for treating a skin tear wound are arranged in a stacked configuration within the package. An instructional labeling system (106) is coupled to the lid. The instructional labeling system can include an identification (107) of a skin tear type the one or more medical implements are designed to treat, a description (108) of the skin tear type, printed instructions (110) defining one or more steps (111,112,113,114) instructing when to use each medical implement within the package to treat the skin tear wound, and one or more removable adhesive labels (115,116).

The present patent application relates to a backpack for domiciliary medical services, for optimising the transport, protection, cleaning and organisation of basic medical items (devices and consumables) when used in the care of a patient during his or her respective domiciliary medical visit and consultation by a doctor or health professional. The backpack for domiciliary medical services also allows easy access to the medical and personal items being carried, and provides versatile adjustment and adaptation of each of its interior spaces according to the need of the health professional. Furthermore, using oxygen, UV light, water, soap or ammonia, among others, the backpack and all the items that it contains can be cleaned and disinfected against microorganisms and bacteria that may become impregnated in or adhere to the backpack.

The subject of the invention is a first aid kit into bicycle handlebars that comprises a compression storage portion, wherein the compression storage portion defines a space adapted for storing objects and an elongated retraction element attached to one end of the compression storage portion, wherein the other end of the compression storage portion is provided with a plug. The plug can be used to fix the compression storage portion in the handlebars and to define a clearance between the first aid kit and the handlebars. The retraction element (e.g., a string or a cord) can be used for retracting the compression storage portion into the handlebars. Furthermore, the first aid kit can comprise a firm storage portion which can provide an additional storage space.
