DEVICES FOR BLEEDING REDUCTION AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME

In some embodiments, a system includes an applicator pad, an application device (e.g., a grip), and a reservoir. The grip can be releasably couplable to the applicator pad and configured to dispose the applicator pad against a wound of a subject such that pressure can be transferred to the wound via the applicator pad to enhance hemostasis. The reservoir can be configured to contain medication to be released to the wound via the applicator pad.

HONEY BEE-DERIVED BIOACTIVE WOUND DRESSING WITH SUSTAINED ANTIMICROBIAL RELEASE
20250339091 · 2025-11-06 ·

The present invention discloses an intelligent, bioengineered wound dressing device that utilizes honey bee-derived therapeutic compounds integrated into a programmable, multi-layered delivery structure designed for sustained antimicrobial release and dynamic wound healing modulation. The device features microencapsulated honey, propolis, and beeswax components embedded within a biocompatible hydrogel matrix, supported by a control technique that processes real-time wound data acquired through embedded biosensors. The technique classifies healing phases, detects wound anomalies, and modulates therapeutic release through actuators based on environmental cues such as pH, temperature, and exudate levels. The system further includes a logic control unit capable of adaptive learning, remote data transmission, and wound trajectory logging, ensuring precise, patient-specific therapeutic delivery. By integrating natural antimicrobial agents with intelligent sensing and release architectures, the invention provides a responsive, self-optimizing wound care platform that enhances healing outcomes, reduces dressing intervention frequency, and improves clinical oversight through real-time therapeutic intelligence.

Method and Apparatus for Treating Topical Wounds
20260000543 · 2026-01-01 ·

A bandage for delivering a powder composition to tissue on a body surface includes a biocompatible powder composition used in combination with a water dissolvable membrane covered by a removable film to provide a safe and effective method of applying topical medications to tissue surfaces and, more specifically, to treating wounds.

Advanced digit dressing

A dressing for treating a wound on a digit includes a digit contact layer configured to substantially prevent adherence of the dressing to the wound and an antimicrobial layer coupled to a wound-facing side of the digit contact layer. The antimicrobial layer includes an antimicrobial substance. A first roll is coupled to a non-wound-facing side of the digit contact layer and unrollable to cover the digit, the digit contact layer, and the antimicrobial layer and a second roll is coupled to the first roll and unrollable to cover the first roll, the digit, the digit contact layer, and the antimicrobial layer.

Nasal compression device

A nose compression device to treat a nosebleed. The device has a wire frame with a straight middle section and two side sections angled with respect to the middle section to apply an inward compression against an outside of the person's nose. The device also includes a support member attached to the wire frame. And, a single nasal sponge attached to the body and having a central sponge portion and two opposing sponge end portions, each of said two opposing sponge end portions configured for insertion into the person's nasal passages.

PRE-FORMED ABSORBENT WOUND DRESSING, COMPRESSION SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE

A pre-formed absorbent wound dressing including at least three layers of a porous hydrophilic wound contact layer, an absorbent layer and a hydrophobic moisture transfer layer, as well as an optional wicking layer. The pre-formed absorbent wound dressing is shaped and pre-formed configured for application on a selected or target body part such as a foot, ankle, leg, calf, knee, thigh, hip, torso, chest, shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist, hand, neck, and head. An inventive compression system includes the pre-formed absorbent wound dressing under a therapeutic compression apparatus.

THERAPEUTIC PACK CONFORMED FOR APPLICATION TO HUMAN AND ANIMAL BODY PARTS
20260102280 · 2026-04-16 ·

A very thin cold and/or heat therapy gel pack with a thickness of approximately 5 mm is designed to conform to the complex contours of a human or animal body through the strategic placement of seams (referred to herein as voids) that allow the gel packs to bend and conform in anatomically correct places to a particular body part. The gel packs may attach to the user via hook and loop closures, buckle closures, strap closures, and adhesive closures. For cold therapy, the gel packs may attach to the user via a pressure sensitive medical adhesive, such as medical tape. Where single-use gel packs are necessary for wound healing, a sterile dressing pad may be embedded in the gel packs. The voids as described herein may also be used on disposable therapy packs that do not contain a gel, such as instant cold therapy packs and instant dry heat packs.
