A medical device comprising a device that covers at least a portion of a patient's skin and has an inner surface designed to be in contact with the patient's skin. It contains a multi-ply knit fabric that contains a first knit ply and a second knit ply. The first knit ply contains a plurality of first yarns and forms the upper surface of the fabric. The second knit ply contains a plurality of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) yarns which forms the lower surface of the fabric. The first and second ply are integrated through combined portions formed by interlacing first yarns among the PTFE yarns, interlacing PTFE yarns among the first yarns, and interlacing a plurality of third yarns among the first and the PTFE yarns. The multi-ply knit fabric also contains a composition comprising at least one silver ion-containing compound on at least the upper surface of the multi-ply knit fabric.

The present invention provides a wrapping device for wrapping body parts. Said wrapping device comprises a rotation module having a first roller ring, a second roller ring, and a plurality of connecting parts; a driving module driving at least one of the first roller ring and the second roller ring to revolve; and at least a pressing device disposed on the second roller ring. In said wrapping device, the first roller ring and the second roller ring are separately and coaxially disposed, while the opposite ends of each of the plurality of connecting parts are separately connected to the first roller ring and the second roller ring. In addition, the first roller ring includes a first ring hole surrounded and formed by a first inner ring wall, and the second roller ring includes a second ring hole surrounded and formed by a second inner ring wall. Said at least a pressing device protrudes toward an inner space of the second ring hole.

A waterproof composite material that comprises three layers, a top layer, a middle layer, and a bottom layer. The middle layer is made of foam while the top layer and bottom layer can be made from a variety of films. The top layer and the bottom layer are formed in a quilted pattern. The top layer and the bottom layer are bunched up (meaning there is extra material there allowing more stretch). A method of manufacturing the waterproof composite material includes placing the three layers on (or in), stretching the middle layer, and then applying a quilt (or other) pattern (using heat and/or pressure) which causes the quilted pattern on the top layer and the bottom layer. The natural contraction of the middle layer (which was stretched when the composite was formed) causes bunching of the top layer and the bottom layer.

A liquid indicating article is disclosed. It can have a single layer, but generally will have at least two layers bonded together, wherein a visible layer masks a second colored layer wherein the visible layer is a wicking material that becomes semitransparent when wet, wherein the colored layer is a permeable adhesive that bonds to the mask layer.

A plastic sheath dimensioned to fit securely and snugly around an arm or leg cast or bandage of a wearer includes a flexible elastic band at an open first end constructed with at least one expandable trough encircling the sheath, with a stretchable band looped over the elastic band and fitted within the trough at said first end, and with the stretchable band being rollable forwardly from the opened first end of the sheath towards an opposite sealed second end from trough to trough when it is desired to remove the sheath from being worn.

A system and method for donning and labeling a body cast provides a protective body cast that is labeled. The system and method provides a protective body cast that forms padded protection around the body of a bedridden patient; and especially around the hip, buttock, and lower extremity pressure points. The body cast is composed of a nanomaterial and serves as an envelope for an inner lining of a softer material such as a composite foam rubber. The body cast is sectioned into a multi-layered enclosing cloth support wrap that is fabricated from a nanomaterial, an inner surface having padding, and at least one auxiliary padding that detachably attaches to the body cast for additional padding. Labels detachably attach to the lower portion of the support wrap for indicating information pertinent to the patient. A caregiver accesses the label to read and mark directly on a bedridden patient.

An orthotic device for embracing and supporting a body part (e.g., articulation) of a human or animal. The orthotic device is a single sheet of moldable Polylactic Acid (PLA) material configured to maintain the body part in an optimal position for development and treatment. An orthotic system includes the PLA sheet and a protective layer in the form of a single moldable sheet of polyethylene foam (PEF). The PEF sheet is configured for placement between the PLA sheet and the body part.
