A surgical instrument and a method for installing a RFID label on the surgical instrument are provided. The surgical instrument includes a surgical instrument body, a RFID label and an adhesive, the surgical instrument body and the RFID label are fixedly connection by the adhesive, the adhesive comprises a first adhesive and a second adhesive; the first adhesive is disposed between a bottom surface of the RFID label and a surface of the surgical instrument body, the other surfaces of the RFID label are covered by the second adhesive, the second adhesive also covers an intersection of the RFID label with the surgical instrument body; and the first adhesive and the second adhesive are different types of adhesives, and an adhesive intensity of the first adhesive is greater than an adhesive intensity of the second adhesive, and fluidity of the second adhesive is greater than fluidity of the first adhesive.

In accordance with one embodiment, a long medical device is sealed within a clean release split carton. The clean release split carton includes a first carton tube coupled to a second carton tube by a closure label. To open the clean release split carton, a tear string is pulled to tear the closure label thus separating the first carton tube from the second carton tube. The individual carton tubes are then removed from the medical device. The clean release split carton avoids the generation of particulates while opening the carton and make removing the medical device easier.

Protective covers that are particularly suitable for flexible RF coils include self-sticking, releasably peelable layers of film having one sticky/tacky inner surface and one non-sticky/non-tacky smooth (outer) surface.

A medical kit (100) includes a package (105) having a housing (501) and a lid (103). One or more medical implements (1001,1101,1201,1301) for treating a skin tear wound are arranged in a stacked configuration within the package. An instructional labeling system (106) is coupled to the lid. The instructional labeling system can include an identification (107) of a skin tear type the one or more medical implements are designed to treat, a description (108) of the skin tear type, printed instructions (110) defining one or more steps (111,112,113,114) instructing when to use each medical implement within the package to treat the skin tear wound, and one or more removable adhesive labels (115,116).

The invention provides a unique thermoset viscoelastomeric reaction product and a container combination comprised of the supportive base equipped with a thermoset viscoelastomer reaction product possessing unexpectedly superior adhesive and cohesive efficacy rendering it especially useful as an adhesive insert in a container combination. The thermoset insert bonds to any suitable supportive structure. The unique viscoelastomeric reaction product inserts adhesively immobilize items placed thereupon and adhesively or permanently bonds to most conventional containers. The tenacious cohesive and adhesive features of the insert allows for inverted stowage of stowed items. Due to the confining adhesive and cohesive attributes of the insert, structural supports of a flexible or solid base without a conventional confining structure provide a unique container combination for the stowed items. Containers equipped with the unique insert also surprisingly provide an aseptic environment especially useful for hygienic applications.

Medical device kits for use in placing, maintaining, altering, and/or removing medical devices in, on, and/or from the body of a patient can include one or more wrap assemblies for use in the placement/maintenance procedure. The one or more wrap assemblies of the medical device kit can include various features to assist the clinician performing the particular procedure, such as a urinary catheterization procedure. A wrap assembly can include a wrap body including a front surface defining an aseptic field for the urinary catheterization procedure, a plurality of pockets on the front surface, and urinary catheterization components disposed in the plurality of pockets, the urinary catheterization components arranged in a predetermined order of use for the urinary catheterization procedure. The wrap assembly can be in a rolled configuration. A method of using the wrap assembly includes unrolling the wrap assembly and removing the urinary catheterization components to perform the procedure.

A packaged bioprosthetic heart valve comprising a bioprosthetic heart valve, an adaptive seal and a package. The bioprosthetic heart valve comprises an at least partially dehydrated biological tissue leaflet structure coupled to a supporting frame. The bioprosthetic heart valve has a periphery, an inflow portion, and an outflow portion. The adaptive seal is coupled to the bioprosthetic heart valve around at least a portion of the periphery. The adaptive seal comprises an expandable material that expands after exposure to an initiating condition. The bioprosthetic heart valve and the adaptive seal is stored and contained within the package, which does not contain a liquid storage solution in contact with the bioprosthetic heart valve and the adaptive seal.

In one example, a sterile container may include a tray having a plurality of walls at least partially defining a cavity. At least one of the plurality of walls may include an opening extending therethrough. The sterile container may further include a seal structure coupled to the tray. At least a portion of the seal structure may be received within the opening of the at least one of the plurality of walls. Additionally, the sterile container may include an extension structure coupled to the seal structure.

The invention relates to a single-use protective cover (1) intended to house a sphygmomanometer cuff and to adapt to the shape thereof, comprising a lower portion provided with an open side allowing the sphygmomanometer cuff to be inserted, wherein said protective sleeve (1) is made from a single piece of a hydrophobic material of SMS type consisting of a non-woven fabric comprising a top layer of spunbond polypropylene, a middle layer of blow-moulded polypropylene and a bottom layer of spunbond polypropylene, said protective sleeve (1) thus acting as a barrier against the risk of infection.
