A pressure-sensing compression bandage having a plurality of pressure sensors provided to indicate the pressures applied by and/or the pressure gradient created by, the applied bandage at various locations along its length when the bandage is applied to a limb or other extremity.

A cannulated tube protector comprising a main body, a first pair of securing members extending from the main body, a second pair of securing members extending from the main body, and a splinting member comprising a viewing door. The viewing door is structured to open thereby exposing a viewing aperture, defined as a doorway. The doorway extends from a first surface of the main body to an opposing second surface of the main body.

Compression garment systems may include a trunk garment and a leg garment to be positioned about a trunk and leg of a body to provide compression therapy thereto. The trunk garment and the garment may include a plurality of controllable pressure applying regions to move lymph from the leg and trunk.

An adhesive elastomeric tape comprising 90 grade cheesecloth that is knitted with a medium gauge elastic yarn through a stitch bonding machine. The cloth is then coated with a petroleum base adhesive using a unique strike through method that allows a adhesive to pass through while coating both sides. A style of athletic tape that is flexible, durable, and adhesive simultaneously.

An improved syndesmosis reduction device has a wrap of elastic material extending a length L from a first end to a second end with an open window or slot positioned in an intermediate portion of the wrap spaced from the ends. The wrap is configured to achieve a reduction of an injured ankle and is facilitated by the elastic nature of the ankle wrap. The reduction is facilitated by circumferentially wrapping the wrap from a leg to a foot or vice versa in a compressive fashion by securing the first end by wrapping and stretching the wrap to the second end. The window or slot is to permit an incision at the ankle for hardware placement without the need to remove the wrap and without loss of the reduction achieved.

A therapeutic compression wrap is provided, comprising: a first front foam panel having inside and outside surfaces and configured to cover a front portion of at least part of a patient's limb; loop closure material stretched over and secured to the outside surface of the first front foam panel; a first back foam panel having inside and outside surfaces and configured to cover a back portion of the at least part of the limb; fabric stretched over and secured to the outside surface of the first back foam panel; and first hook closure material secured to side edges of the inside surface of the back foam panel, the first hook closure material matable with the loop closure material whereby the back foam panel is securable to the front foam panel.

The invention relates to a device comprising a surgical material and a support material and related methods for the application of the surgical material to a wound or surgical site using the device.

The invention relates to a compression dressing comprising a first cushion layer (1) and second support layer (2), wherein the two layers (1,2) are connected to each other in the unstretched state by means of stitch-bonding processes via an elastic sewing thread, the stitch length being 1.5 to 3 mm/U at a sewing thread tension of at most 4 cN.

An apparatus operable to facilitate the flow of fluids through an intravenous site including a main body. The main body includes a first pair of securing members extending outward from the main body and a second pair of securing members extending outward from the main body. The apparatus further includes a splinting member with a longitudinal and latitudinal profile that includes a bell curved frustum shape.

The invention relates to a bandage comprising a flat web material as a substrate, wherein a self-adhesive cohesive adhesive compound is at least partially applied to both flat sides of the substrate, and the substrate is impregnated with a liquid preparation, characterised in that said adhesive compound comprises an anhydrous cohesive pressure sensitive adhesive which contains natural and/or synthetic rubber, this natural and/or synthetic rubber being dissolved in an organic solvent for application, or the pressure sensitive adhesive being molten for application.
