A blister protector cap incorporates features such as a hemispherical/paraboloid cap dome, which goes over a blister and attaches to the skin using an adhesive compound. The blister protector cap may have air vents located at any part of its surface for ventilation purposes and aiding the skin to heal the blister. The anterior side of the blister protector cap has a cavity in order to cover the blister and protect it from any sharp or rough objects. In an embodiment, some part of the dome is flexible. In such a configuration, an accordion-like wall structure or a corrugated wall structure can be integrated to allow for some flexibility. Furthermore, this flexible part of the dome can also have vent holes or be made of a porous material to allow air and moisture to pass through but block water molecules from passing through to the inside of dome.

A device comprising: a breast bandage hosting a cup portion, a reservoir portion, a gauze portion, and an adhesive portion, wherein the cup portion hosts the reservoir portion, wherein the gauze portion extends about the reservoir portion, wherein the adhesive portion is external to the reservoir portion.

A breathable medical gauze patch includes at least one bandage body coupled with at least one ply of gauze or similar to, which not only helps wounds heal fast, but also prevent infections and potential complications. The at least one bandage body includes an adhesive on the underside that permits mounting about the wound site of a user/recipient. The at least one ply is disposed about a bandage aperture of the at least one bandage body. The at least one ply permits aeration therethrough to the wound site and facilitates absorption of any seepage of the wound while protecting the wound from the exterior environment. Further, the at least one ply may include multiple layers of sterilized medical grade gauze, a gel and an adhesive that allow the present invention to be efficiently and effectively applied to various deep or shallow wounds for facilitating speedy healing of the wounds.

The present invention relates to apical wound debridement methods for wound healing by altering the geometry of the wound. Further, the methods of the invention enhance wound healing, either when used alone or in combination with STERIS trips or other wound healing grafts and medical devices. Further, use of the methods of the present invention on various locations such as but not limited to the foot, ankle, leg, back, neck, arms, hands and face results in wound recovery.

The present disclosure relates to a two-component medical device for closing a wound or incision. The two-component device comprising a first and second component, each comprising an adhesive-backed anchoring member having one edge referred to as the wound edge. The adhesive-backed anchoring members are produced from a polymeric film sheet. Disclosed are instances wherein the adhesive-backed anchoring members are characterized by the presence of one or more discontinuities in the polymeric film sheet.

The present invention relates to a tension attenuating hypertrophic scar reduction film, and more particularly, the tension attenuating hypertrophic scar reduction film that prevents the opening of the wound by tension by distributing or removing the tension transmitted to the wound by attaching the film of different thickness or asymmetric size to the wound where the tension is applied.

A substrate for transplanting a skin micrograft. The substrate may be configured to receive the tissue micrograft and be positioned at a recipient site. The substrate may have a first surface and a second surface, and may include a bioresorbable material and an adhesive. The bioresorbable material may include oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC), for example, from about 40% to about 50% by weight of the substrate. The bioresorbable material may include collagen, for example, from about 50% to about 60% by weight of the substrate. The adhesive may include a sugar, for example, glucose from about 8% to about 16% by weight of the substrate. The bioresorbable material may include a plasticizer, for example, glycerol.

A skin-mountable device (10) is disclosed comprising a surface (11) carrying an adhesive layer (20) for adhering the device to a skin region (1) and a removable non-adhesive cover layer (30) shaped as a loop having a first loop portion (31) covering the entire adhesive layer and a second loop portion (35) returning over the first loop portion, the second loop portion containing a pull (37) for pulling the cover layer from the adhesive layer when the skin-mountable device is positioned on said skin region. Also disclosed is a method of affixing such a skin-mountable device (10) to a skin region (1).

A conformable wound dressing system is provided. The system includes a backing and a dressing support layer. The backing has a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, a perimeter that includes first and second lateral edges extending from a first end to a second end, and a longitudinal axis extending form the first end to the second end. An adhesive is on the first major surface and a dressing support layer is on the second major surface. The dressing support layer comprises a first section and second section where the first section is disconnected and spaced apart from the second section to define a gap extending from the first end of the backing to the second end of the backing.

Provided is a taping kit capable of controlling a depth of a stimulation according to the purpose to a structural parts from the epidermis to the dermis and fascia. The present invention provides a taping kit comprising two or more tapes to be affixed to the body containing at least a stretchable substrate and an adhesive layer on one surface of the substrate, which comprises a first tape which has a plurality of slits in a longitudinal direction, and a second tape which has a plurality of slits in a longitudinal direction and is overlapped and attached on at least a part of the first tape.
