A storage and mixing device includes a mixing compartment, two pistons that each extend from the mixing compartment and end in a displacement section, each piston defining a passageway having a first opening communicating with the mixing compartment and a second opening communicating with an inlet at the displacement section, and a housing having two piston guides and a cartridge compartment connected to the piston guide, each piston guide slidably receiving one of the pistons, and each cartridge compartment receiving a removable cartridge that includes a cavity for containing separate substances and an opening sealed by a cartridge seal. The displacement section of each piston includes a piercing member for piercing the cartridge seal of the cartridge arranged in the corresponding cartridge compartment, such that the displacement section enters the cartridge cavity and displaces the contained substance into the mixing compartment via the inlet and the passageway.

A device comprising a housing having a handle end and a treatment end. The treatment end is configured to provide an antimicrobial treatment and a heat treatment. The treatment end comprises an applicator having an applicator surface for providing at least the heat treatment. The device includes a heat generation unit configured to heat the applicator surface in use, a source of antimicrobial agent, and a control unit operatively connected to at least the heat generation unit for controlling the heat generation unit. The device can be a hand-held device and used to apply topical treatment to a treatment area of a subject.

The invention relates to a flexible application aid for the treatment of wounds. The application aid can be used in particular for the debridement and/or cleansing of wounds, including the skin surrounding the wound. The application aid according to the invention including a flexible or elastically deformable application wand, facilitates debridement of superficial to deep wounds without the risk of injury to the wound.

A device and method for selectively applying a composition a treatment surface (e.g., skin) to impart an aesthetically pleasing appearance to the surface. The device may include a detector for obtaining image data corresponding to an image of an area of skin. The device may also include an applicator for selectively applying a fixed amount of the composition to the skin to a location within the area of skin as determined by the device. The fixed amount is selected to reduce the artifact magnitude by a predetermined coverage level when applied to the skin. The device may include a processing arrangement for receiving image data from the detector, determining an artifact magnitude of the location based on the image data, comparing the artifact magnitude to a threshold, and directing the applicator to apply the composition to the skin when the artifact magnitude is above the threshold.

A liquid applicator comprising an absorbent member, and a single-piece, unitary body. The body can include a closed container defining a reservoir, and a tab. The container can include a main portion, a transition portion, a rib, and a chamber located in the tab and coupled to the transition portion via a frangible connection. The main portion, the transition portion, the rib, and the chamber can each define a portion of the reservoir, and at least the main portion, the transition portion, and the rib can have a uniform wall thickness. The tab can include the chamber and can be coupled to the transition portion at least by the frangible connection, the tab being movable with respect to the transition portion between a first position in which the frangible connection is intact and a second position in which the frangible connection is fractured.

A system for applying a lavage fluid to a surface, the system having a body configured to house a lavage fluid and at least two interchangeable application members configured to be in fluid communication with the body, wherein the at least two interchangeable application members includes a first application member and a second application member, the first application member being configured to dispense the lavage fluid with a first fluid flow force and/or first fluid flow pattern, and the second application member being configured to dispense the lavage fluid with a second fluid flow force and/or second fluid flow pattern that is different from the first fluid flow force and/or fluid flow pattern, respectively.

A system for applying a lavage fluid to a surface, the system having a body configured to house a lavage fluid and an application member in fluid communication with the body, wherein the application member has at least one nozzle, wherein the system is configured to dispense the lavage fluid with a first fluid flow force and a first fluid flow pattern, and wherein the nozzle is configured to selectably dispense the lavage fluid with a second fluid flow force and/or a second fluid flow pattern, wherein the second fluid flow force that is different from the first fluid flow force and the second fluid flow pattern is different from the first fluid flow pattern.

The present invention provides an apparatus for producing medical foam for wound care or hair stimulation. The apparatus includes a foam generation unit having a fluid reservoir, a fluid delivery line and a foam generation tip. The apparatus also includes a compressed gas unit having at least one container of compressed gas, a source of electric power, and a gas regulator valve. A supply of wound care or hair stimulating solution is communicably connected to the foam generation tip such that when the apparatus is operated medical foam is produced by the foam generator tip.

Proposed is a complex aqua skin peeling machine which allows for the use of a handpiece to supply hydrogen water to the skin of a user for removal of reactive oxygen species in the user's body.

Compositions that include a clay such as kaolin dispersed in a liquid such as water may be useful for promoting the clotting of blood. The compositions may be in a liquid, gel, paste, foam, or another form. Uses may include treating a traumatic injury such as in injury caused by a bullet, an explosive, a blade etc., or an injury caused during a medical procedure such as surgery.
