A medical dressing is provided. The dressing has a central portion and a border portion, and comprises a backing layer, an adhesive body contact layer and a pad arranged in the central portion between the backing layer and the adhesive body contact layer. The pad is symmetric about a longitudinal center line and the dressing comprises a lobed portion on each side of the center line. The medical dressing comprises a gripping tab which is coplanar with the border portion and which projects outwardly from the border portion. The medical dressing may be used for pressure ulcer prevention, such as at the sacrum region of a human body.

A bandage can be made oversized in width and length with a thick absorbent pad to provide pressure to the wound. The bandage provides a one-step procedure for wounds that need pressure and protection. The individually wrapped bandage is taken from a sterile wrapper to the wound so there is no worry of infection. Pull tabs make the bandage application a sterile procedure. Another bandage has a hard or semi hard cover with optional vent holes incorporated for air circulation. The bandage protects a wound or stitches or any delicate skin problem from being bumped or damaged from ordinary daily labors. The cover can have no pad in it or it can have a pad that can have nothing in it or can have anti-bacterial ointment, or the like, to help fight infection.

A device for introducing sterile instruments into an operation chamber or an instrument chamber comprises an introduction frame, a first roller and a second roller rotatable around their respective longitudinal axis and attached to the introduction frame such that the longitudinal axis of the first roller and the longitudinal axis of the second roller are parallel and the first roller and the second roller are movable along an axis extending perpendicular to their respective longitudinal axis. A distance between the first roller and the second roller is defined by a position of a movement of the first and second roller along the axis extending perpendicular to their longitudinal axes. The first and second rollers are biased to contact each other and may be moved along the axis to increase the distance to allow insertion of an instrument through a gap provided by the distance.

A re-closable wound dressing is provided. A base layer is operable to be attached to a skin of a patient. The base layer forms a pre-fabricated aperture through which a wound of the patient is accessible. A cover layer is coupled with the base layer. The cover layer is operable to cover the pre-fabricated aperture, and is permanently adhered to the base layer along at least a portion of the cover layer. The base layer and the cover layer are made of like materials.

A gynecological device that corrects a vaginal opening that is large or stretched out without requiring surgery. The stretchable gynecological device includes a main body having a front surface, a rear surface, a first end, a second end, a first edge, a second edge, and an adhesive on the rear surface of the main body. The gynecological device also includes at least two arms having a front surface, a rear surface, a first end, a second end, a first edge and a second edge that extend outwardly from the second edge of the main body. An adhesive is on the rear surface of the arms. To apply the gynecological device, the arms are firmly pressed down to the vaginal vestibule bilaterally, the main body is then pulled up above the clitoral hood and then applied and pressed down across the lower abdomen towards the anterior superior iliac spines.

In some embodiments, a system includes an applicator pad, an application device (e.g., a grip), and a reservoir. The grip can be releasably couplable to the applicator pad and configured to dispose the applicator pad against a wound of a subject such that pressure can be transferred to the wound via the applicator pad to enhance hemostasis. The reservoir can be configured to contain medication to be released to the wound via the applicator pad.

The present disclosure relates to a medical device for curing a liquid bandage and a method for curing a liquid bandage using same. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the medical device for curing a liquid bandage includes: an input unit into which an external signal is input; and a light source unit including a diode that emits ultraviolet rays for curing the liquid bandage according to the inputted signal.

Devices, kits and methods described herein include skin treatments with a book-like packaging, applicator and/or tensioning device used to apply a dressing to a subject. The packaging, applicator and/or tensioning device is used to apply and/or maintain a strain in an elastic dressing, and has a first support, a second support, and a primary bending region therebetween, the primary bending region comprising a primary bending axis, with the dressing attached to the first and second supports of the device.

A wound closure device and a method of its use are disclosed. The wound closure device includes a wound closure strip, the wound closure strip including a wound-facing side and a top side, the wound-facing side comprises an adhesive applied over at least a portion of the wound facing side of the wound closure strip and a non-symmetric, two-part release liner assembly detachably adhered to the adhesive, the release liner assembly including a first section and a second section with the second section including a wound closure strip-free portion forming a tab. In an alternate embodiment, the device is multi-segmented and the wound closure strip may be coextensive with the release liner assembly.

A device for establishing and maintaining a sterile environment for conducting surgical procedures is disclosed. In particular, the tent-like device provides an interior space attachable to a patient's skin to allow surgical treatment of the patient. Several aspects of the invention are directed to devices to be used in connection with such a surgical procedure using the tent-like device. According to the invention, an isolation device for providing a sterile operation chamber above a skin region of a patient is provided, in particular for performing a surgical procedure, said isolation device comprising an inflatable bag coupled to a support frame, the support frame having a transport configuration and an operation configuration. In the transport configuration, the first inflatable bag is confined, such as to have compact dimensions. In the operation configuration, the first inflatable bag is extended, such as to form said sterile operation chamber.
