The invention relates to a medical product for a fastening duration of at least 7 days having good skin compatibility. The medical product includes a central adhesive compartment (3) and an over-patch. The over-patch is free of active ingredients and is formed from a water-vapor-permeable back layer (1) and an adhesive polymer layer (2) that is free of active ingredients. The invention further relates to a method for the production of the foregoing medical product, and to kits of parts containing laminates of layers 1 and 2.

Described is a haemostatic device comprising a substrate and a surface formed on the substrate. The surface comprises at least one of micro- and nano-sized materials, the materials being partially embedded in a base, the surface substantially preventing wetting of the substrate. An embodiment of the device is carbon nano fibres embedded partially in a PDMS or PTFE base, on a substrate.

The present disclosure presents a stain reduction improvement of a disposable absorbent article by applying a hydrophobic barrier formulation to a topsheet and/or absorbent core area of the article and thereafter embossing the treated area with heat and pressure. A barrier is thus created wherein the barrier is along the full length of the embossment.

It is an object to provide a therapeutic material for a skin ulcer which has excellent therapeutic effects on intractable skin ulcers such as decubitus ulcers with pockets and huge decubitus ulcers. By applying the therapeutic material for decubitus ulcers consisting of a fibrous material holding an antibiotic and a cell proliferation accelerator therein which is formed into an approximately spherical shape to a site of decubitus in a state in which a defect extending to the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, muscle or bone occurs, it is possible to treat critical skin ulcers such as intractable decubitus ulcers with pockets and huge intractable decubitus ulcers, as well as to treat not only relatively mild decubitus classified as stage II according to the US National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) staging system, i.e., decubitus having ulcers in a state in which a part of the dermis is deficient, but also severe decubitus that has progressed to stage III to IV according to the NPUAP staging system, particularly decubitus with intractable ulcers with pockets or decubitus with huge intractable ulcers.

A medicinal skin protection composition is disclosed with an active ingredient combination that specifically serves to care for aging skin that is exposed to difficult environmental conditions. The active ingredient combination obligatorily includes the components almond oil, linseed oil fatty acids, amino acids, and creatine. The medicinal skin protection composition can be used for aging skin in the form of creams, lotions etc., and also for a variety of incontinence articles, such as sanitary towels or nappies.

Described herein are medical devices and medical implements with high lubricity to flesh (or biological fluid) and/or inhibited nucleation on its surface. The device has a surface comprising an impregnating liquid and a plurality of micro-scale and/or nano-scale solid features spaced sufficiently close to stably contain the impregnating liquid therebetween. The impregnating liquid fills spaces between said solid features, the surface stably contains the impregnating liquid between the solid features, and the impregnating liquid is substantially held in place between the plurality of solid features regardless of orientation of the surface.
