The present disclosure relates to apparatus for covering a burn or other wound in ways that prevent or limit touching the wound. The present disclosure describes Burn Bandages that may include domes or structures that bridge over a wide range of a burn or wound size. In certain instances these structures may expand in one or more directions as they are adjusted to fit to a particular burn or wound size. Such bridging structures may include airways, openings, or voids that promote air/oxygen flow to the wound as the Burn Bandage sits upon surfaces or pads that contact healthy surrounding tissue while they cover a wound site. The apparatus may be any shape including, yet not limited to, a circle, a rectangle, a square, a hexagon, an octagon, an oval, a cone, a cylinder, have a semi-cylindrical shape, or that have any another geometric shape.

This disclosure describes example portable medical device protectors that may be used in combination with various antimicrobial and/or antiseptic agents to reduce contaminants on a portable medical device. According to some embodiments, the disclosure describes that the protectors may comprise an impermeable container to store a permeable applicator impregnated with an antimicrobial or antiseptic agent.

A pair of eye goggles is described. A strap can be fit removably around a head. A nosepiece can be fit over the nose. A pair of eyepieces includes a transparent lens and a frame. An airtight and watertight skin interface is adapted to fit securely against the wearer's skin. A flex layer includes a seal that is at least one of airtight and watertight and which is structurally interposed between at least a portion of two or more of the skin, the nosepiece, the eyepieces, the transparent lens, the frame, and the skin interface. The flex layer includes a phase change material that is resiliently and elastically malleable. The flex layer is deformable such that at least one portion can transmute the magnitude of a force applied and can redirect the force in at least one direction. External forces acting are at least one of mitigated, transmuted, and isolated.

A protective cover for an affected area of a patient, particularly associated with an insertion site of a catheter or other puncture or opening in a patient's skin, comprising a body portion including an aperture, and a window portion, wherein the body portion and window portion each optionally comprises an antimicrobial composition. Aspects of the present invention provide articles, systems and kits for covering an incision, wound or catheter insertion site with a protective cover, and methods of using and making the protective cover.

External-injury waterproof protector, of long service life as a product. The structure of the limb-insertion opening enables completely shielding out water to protect an injured area. The protector has a flexible pouch body composed of a waterproofing material, with a mouth at either one or both ends, and an extensible/contractible annular constriction component hermetically and adhesively attached to the one or both pouch-body end(s). The annular constriction component is furnished with a tube portion formed to enable covering a portion of the four human limbs in a watertight state, and a brim portion formed projecting radially outward from a mouth edge of the tube portion. The tube portion favorably is formed at a narrower diameter than that of the other end of the pouch body. The brim portion arcuately slopes gently in a flaring form, lending the mouth of the annular constriction component an arcuate sloping surface.

A pair of eye goggles is described. The eye googles include a three axial adjustable nosepiece that can be fit over a wearer's nose including a plurality of unequal length strands on each side of the nosepiece with the strands comprising resilient properties different from the resilient properties included in the other strands in the plurality of strands on that side. The eye goggles also include a strap that can be fit removably around the wearer's head, and a pair of eyepieces. Each eyepiece includes a transparent lens that can be fit over one of the wearer's eyes, and a frame that surrounds the transparent lens to which the nosepiece and the strap are attached. The eye goggles also include a sealing pad formed on an inside-facing edge of the frame.

A wound/bandage protector configured as a wrap, a sock/mitten, or a bandage may be made out of stretchable material. The wrap may have one or more fastening straps as well as possibly a first catch fastening surface. The sock/mitten may have a fastening strap and a sheath. The wrap, the sock/mitten, and the bandages may have apertures and aperture covers. In addition, the wound/bandage protectors as well as the bandages may have diamond or triangular gauze configurations with the gauze pad having three or four primary corners, the primary corners of the gauze pad in most instances being oriented towards edges of the body portion or length or width tangents of the body portion, preferably mid-points or mid-sections of the length or width tangents or body portion edges.

A waterproof limb cover for preventing liquid ingress to a predefined region of a limb comprising a casing with at least one opening, into which a limb can be inserted. The casing, which is impermeable to the liquid, has at least one sealing closure mechanism to sealingly enclose a predefined region of the limb. The casing further comprises at least one predefined irreversibly rupturable region. Rupture of the irreversibly rupturable region allows removal of the waterproof limb cover from the limb, and prevents undesirable reuse of the cover.

A protective cover for an affected area of a patient, particularly associated with an insertion site of a catheter or other puncture or opening in a patient's skin, comprising a body portion including a notch, and a window portion incorporated within the body portion. In some aspects, the notch and window portion overlap when the protective cover is worn to cover the affected area, the body portion being formed from a material having an approximately trapezoidal shape prior to assembly or application to the subject. In some aspects, the material having the approximately trapezoidal shape comprises: a first end body edge approximately parallel to a second end body edge, the first end body edge having a first length, and the second end body edge having a second length that is different from the first length, and the body portion being positioned centrally between the first and second end body edges.

An injury contact prevention band includes an injury cover portion, a fastening portion, and a hard cover portion. The injury cover portion covers a part of a body including an injury, has flexibility, elasticity and a thickness through which an injury opening hole cuts to expose the injury. The fastening portion fastens the injury cover portion to the body. The hard cover portion covers an outer surface of the injury cover portion, has hardness and a thickness through which an injury opening hole opening cuts. The fastening portion includes first and second fastening members and a connecting member. The first fastening member extends from an end of the injury cover portion. The second fastening member extends from another end of the injury cover portion. The connecting member detachably connects an end of the first fastening member and an end of the second fastening member to each other.
