The present invention relates to the field of medicine, generally to the field of surgical and emergency medical wound covering means on the base of haemostatic composition designated as Hemoblok. The invention proposes a new method of usage of these haemostatic compositions to activate the formation of artificial clots that can adhere to wounded tissue for the suppression of fluid loss and for the protection of viable tissue. The method consists of the steps to be applied to the open wound a grid-forming water-soluble haemostatic Hemoblok composition consisting of a polyacrylic matrix as an active ingredients, creating by Hemoblok the clot formation with the blood plasma proteins, preferably with albumin, creating a structure containing albumin molecules in the cells of the polyacrylic matrix (grid), which is the primary organizer of sustainable polyacrylic film, further forming by Hemoblok the multilayered solid polyacrylic film, then the replacement by fibrin of the surface structure hemoblok-protein and implementation of plasma formation of the polyacrylic matrix. Another object of the invention is a kit for creation of wound covering, comprising, packaged in association a Hemoblok composition, and a dispenser for applying the Hemoblok to open wounds, which is made as a woven or a non-woven fabric, a tube, a bandage or a container having at least one opening.

A system and method for a vacuum wound device. The system includes a wound vacuum device. The vacuum device includes a compressible sponge, vacuum tubing, and a delivery tube sized to house the wound vacuum device. The wound vacuum device is connected to a vacuum pump which creates and delivers the vacuum.

A combined compression and absorption dressing/bandage, which includes a short stretch compression bandage and at least one absorptive wound dressing comprising at least one absorbent layer of a non-woven fabric of any one or more of cotton, viscose and polyester fibers, the absorbent layer having an operative inner face and an operative outer face, the at least one wound dressing being bonded to the short stretch compression bandage with its inner face towards the bandage and the outer face facing away from the bandage.

Embodiments of strapped bandages for treating wounds on a subject patient are disclosed, comprising a pocket for receiving a heating and/or cooling packet therein.

A wound care system comprising a single-layer arrangement of mutually parallel capillary membranes with a porous, semi-permeable wall, a lumen and at least one open end. The capillary membranes are connected to one another by connection elements to form a mat and are held at a distance from one another by the connection elements.

A wound dressing system having a capillary membrane system arranged in a pouch-shaped wound dressing that is closed at its outer edge. The pouch-shaped wound dressing having an upper face, a lower face, and an interior formed from planar materials with the lower face permeable to fluids. The capillary membrane system is arranged into the interior of the pouch-shaped wound dressing.

The present invention relates to a super absorbent polymer. The super absorbent polymer according to the present invention includes surface crosslinked polymer particles prepared by surface crosslinking particles of a base resin, wherein the base resin is polymerized from water-soluble ethylene-based unsaturated monomers, and a water-soluble component, in which the water-soluble component is present in an amount of 5% by weight or less based on the total weight of the super absorbent polymer, when measured after free swelling the super absorbent polymer in a 0.9% NaCl solution for 1 hour, and the super absorbent polymer has a permeability of 50 seconds or shorter. According to the present invention, provided is a super absorbent polymer having excellent liquid permeability even when swollen without a reduction in centrifuge retention capacity or absorbency under load while having improved permeability.

An improved abdominal hernia repair system is presented comprised of a silicone layer backed up with a knitted or woven polypropylene fabric layer, the silicone layer possessing a regular pattern of slits that permit equilibration of fluid pressure across the device. A variety of therapeutic substances can be applied to the hernia repair device to promote healing, including aloe and other medicinal preparations. A layer of water soluble or water insoluble anti-scar compound is also present, the preferred compound being Salinomycin. An improved inguinal hernia repair system is presented that is identical to the above except it does not contain the hydrophobic silicone component.

Some embodiments have a pump assembly mounted to or supported by a dressing for reduced pressure wound therapy. The dressing can have visual pressure, saturation, and/or temperature sensors to provide a visual indication of the level of pressure, saturation, and/or temperature within the dressing. Additionally, the pump assembly can have a pressure sensor in communication with the flow pathway through the pump, and at least one switch or button supported by the housing, the at least one switch or button being accessible to a user and being in communication with the controller. The pump assembly can have a controller supported within or by the housing, the controller being configured to control an operation of the pump. The pump can be configured to be sterilized following the assembly of the pump such that all of the components of the pump have been sterilized.

Provided herein are methods for making foam materials and foam material products having a polyurethane foam matrix defining a plurality of pores, a hydrophilic agent retained within at least a portion of the pores for improving an absorption of the foam material, a salt retained within at least a portion of the pores in an amount sufficient to render the foam material isotonic, a surfactant retained within at least a portion of the pores in an amount sufficient to be released upon contact with a moist surface. Also provided herein are methods for making a multilayer foam by casting a second foam layer on a first foam layer substrate and compressing the second foam layer before the second layer is fully cured to form an interface layer in situ.
