A platform for dispensing one or more securement devices, comprising a first section, including a first top surface, a first bottom surface, a first end, and a second end, a second section connected to the first section including a second top surface and a second bottom surface, and a third section connected to the first section including a third top surface and a third bottom surface, wherein the first section is arranged to hold the one or more securement devices, and the second and third sections are arranged to be mounted to a mounting surface.

A wound dressing assembly includes a wound cover and a carrier. The wound cover has a length and width substantially greater than a height (or thickness), a first major surface, and a second major surface, opposite the first. The first major surface has disposed thereon a wound cover pressure sensitive adhesive comprising a colloidal absorbent, and it is arranged and configured to adhere to mammalian skin during use. The carrier has a length and width substantially greater than a height (or thickness), a first major surface, and a second major surface, opposite the first. The first major surface of the carrier is disposed in facing relation and is removably attached to the second major surface of the wound cover, and it has disposed thereon at least one pressure sensitive adhesive. After application of the wound cover to skin for use, the carrier is removable from the wound cover to leave the wound cover adhered to the skin.

Provided is a microneedle patch which is easily to be applied on a skin surface. One or more holes are provided inside a protective sheet of the microneedle patch, and one or more cutting lines running from an outer edge of the protective sheet toward the holes are also provided. The cutting lines may be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hole. Providing an incision on the outer edge of the cutting lines of the protective release sheet facilitates cutting along the cutting lines. In the use of the microneedle patch, both sides of the cutting line of the protective release sheet are held and torn so as to bring out a microneedle array adhesive sheet and apply it on a skin. Then the microneedle array surface is slightly compressed, thereby the microneedle is inserted into the stratum corneum.

A medical device packaging assembly includes a cover (10), a medical packaging paper (20), a medical device (50), and an adhesive dressing (30). The cover has a pocket (14) and a perimeter (12) extending from the perimeter of the pocket. The medical packaging paper forms a hermetically tight seal between the medical packaging paper and the perimeter of the cover around the pocket. The medical device is contained in the hermetically sealed pocket along with the adhesive dressing. The adhesive dressing is removably adhered to the medical packaging paper.

A filter assembly for an enclosure, particularly for an ostomy bag, is described having an enclosure side, a first layer which is gas permeable, and an adsorbent layer comprising adsorbent particles dispersed in a fine fiber web. The enclosure side of the filter assembly includes an adhesive zone in which adhesive is present having an outer adhesive perimeter and a weld area surrounding at least a portion of the adhesive zone, where the filter assembly is heat-sealable to the enclosure at the weld area. A method of assembly is also described.

A transdermal administration device packaged body includes a transdermal administration device including an administration member housed in a container, the administration member having at least one projection protruding from a first surface of a substrate, and an outer package which houses the transdermal administration device and has a bag form including a front component and a rear component. The front component is positioned on a first surface side of the substrate, the rear component is positioned on a second surface side opposite to the first surface side of the substrate, and the front component has an opening member configured to be pulled open to open the outer package.

A medical dressing comprising a backing layer and a self-supporting substrate. The backing layers form a perimeter around the self supporting substrate and holds the self supporting substrate in place on a wound. The self supporting substrate comprises a valve. The adhesive article forms a sealed environment between the medical article and the surface surrounding the wound such that a negative pressure can be maintained in the sealed environment through the valve.

An adhesive patch assembly and method for making same. The assembly can include an adhesive patch and a release liner. The patch can include a backing and a skin-contact adhesive. The release liner can further include a first portion and a second portion separated by a hinge. The first portion can be positioned to overlay the backing of the patch when the release liner is folded upon the hinge, and the second portion can be positioned to underlie the skin-contact adhesive of the patch. The method can include positioning the patch on the release liner, such that patch is located on one of the first portion and the second portion of the release liner; and folding the release liner about to locate the patch between the first portion and the second portion of the release liner.
