A topical cushion configured to be worn in proximity to a surgical site of a patient. Such a topical cushion may be further configured to allow free movement at or near the surgical site, while preventing painful or otherwise unwanted contact.

A wound cover device can include a backing, a micro-structure device, and one or more of a wound dressing and a skin replacement layer. The backing can be stretchable. The micro-structure device can include a plurality of fasteners, such as micro-staples, micro-pins, micro-barbs and the like, that can be used to attach the wound cover device to tissue such as skin. The micro-structure device can be stretchable to stretch with the backing. The micro-structure device can be configured such that the fasteners are positioned in a two-dimensional pattern or fill-in an interior portion of the wound dressing or skin replacement layer. The fasteners of the micro-structure device can extend through the wound dressing or skin replacement layer. The micro-structure device can additionally be placed around a perimeter or edge region of the backing.

Disclosed embodiments relate to devices and systems for providing negative-pressure therapy, instillation, and/or pressure-sensing at a tissue site, and to methods of manufacturing such devices and systems. In some embodiments, a fluid bridge may comprise a first layer of foam with a plurality of supports extending from at least an inner surface, and a second layer. The first and second layers may be coupled together around the perimeter to form one or more enclosed fluid pathways, for example extending from a port to an aperture. In some embodiments, at least the first layer may be formed of closed-cell foam.

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed relating to the creation and use of bespoke wound fillers and other wound treatment apparatuses. Some embodiments provide for the creation of bespoke wound fillers based on characteristics of a wound. Certain embodiments also include the use of bespoke wound fillers in combination with negative pressure to treat a wound.

A wound dressing comprising a component wherein said component comprises a planar backing sheet and a yarn wherein the yarn extends through the planar backing sheet from the first side of the sheet to form a plurality of tufts on the second side of the planar backing sheet. Also disclosed is a component comprising an elastomeric planar backing sheet and an absorbent yarn and a component comprising a planar backing sheet and a monofilament yarn wherein in each case the yarn extends through the planar backing sheet from the first side of the sheet to form a plurality of tufts on the second side of the planar backing sheet. Also disclosed is a method of manufacturing the components, a wound dressing or a negative pressure apparatus comprising the components and a method of treating a wound using said wound dressing or negative pressure apparatus comprising the components.

Wound treatments and wound treatment methods are provided that includes particles of decellularized fish skin. A predetermined percentage of at least a first portion of the particles of decellularized fish skin have a greatest dimension within a predetermined size threshold maximum and a minimum size threshold that is effective to preserve a matrix structure of the decellularized fish skin and to promote cellular regenerative ingrowth into a wound.

A device designed to be packed into a wound that will expand to fill the voids of the wound to control bleeding is provided. The device is comprised of two or more individual pouches, linked together, and filled with an expandable material that will swell upon absorption of blood through the pouch walls.

According to some aspects of the invention a method for creation of a wound covering with haemostatic action includes: applying to an open wound a cell structure (grid)-forming water-soluble haemostatic composition designated as a Hemoblok consisting of a polyacrylic matrix as an active ingredient, where the matrix includes one or more polymeric carboxylic acid of a predetermined average molecular weight range, and a bactericidal agent; creating by Hemoblok on a wound surface a structure clot formation with blood plasma proteins, including albumin; creating by Hemoblok on the wound, a covering containing albumin molecules in cells of a polyacrylic structure matrix (grid), which is a primary organizer of sustainable grid structure clot film; further supplying of Hemoblok on an open wound surface to form a multilayered solid grid structure film; terminating of Hemoblok supply on a wound surface with following gradual replacement of a surface structure hemoblok-protein by fibrin.

A negative pressure wound therapy system treats multiple wounds on a patient's body. The system includes a source of negative air pressure, an air source, first and second fluid collection volumes, first and second wound-covering domes disposed over first and second wounds, a valve assembly disposed between the source of negative air pressure and the first and second fluid collection volumes, and between the air source and the first and second domes. The valve assembly has first and second operational modes. In the first, the valve assembly puts the source of negative air pressure in fluid communication with the first fluid collection volume, and the air source in fluid communication with the first dome. In the second, the valve assembly puts the source of negative air pressure in fluid communication with the second fluid collection volume, and the air source in fluid communication with the second dome.

A negative pressure wound therapy system is configured for treating multiple wounds on a patient's body. The system preferably includes a source of negative air pressure, an air source, a first fluid collection volume, and a second fluid collection volume. The source of negative air pressure is in fluid communication with the first fluid collection volume, the first collection volume is in fluid communication with the second fluid collection volume, and the second fluid collection volume is in fluid communication with the air source, so that the source of negative air pressure, the first fluid collection volume, the second fluid collection volume, and the air source are fluidly connected in series.
