In some cases, a wound dressing comprises a substantially flexible substrate with a first, wound-facing side supporting a plurality of electronic components and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the substrate comprises a plurality of perforations formed though the substrate and wherein the plurality of perforations comprise walls on the exterior surface of the plurality of perforations, a first substantially stretchable coating applied to the first side of the substrate, and a second substantially stretchable coating applied to second side of the substrate, wherein the walls of the plurality of perforations are at least partially coated with at least one of the coatings.

Disclosed is a wound dressing material comprising a substrate, about 2.5% to about 8% by weight of a bicarbonate, and a film-forming agent, the film-forming agent serving as a binder for said bicarbonate to said substrate, the film-forming agent and the bicarbonate being present in a ratio of between 1:2 and 2:1 with respect to one another. Also disclosed are a method for preparing a wound dressing material and a method for treating a wound.

In some cases, a wound dressing and a method for coating a wound dressing is provided. A first coating may be applied on a first side of a substantially flexible substrate of the wound dressing. The first side of the substrate may support a plurality of electronic components, electronic tracks, and a plurality of connectors between the electronic components and electronic tracks. The first coating may be applied to at least one connector of the plurality of connectors or to at least one electronic components of the plurality of electronic components to reinforce the at least one connector or the at least one electronic components.

Temperature variant compression stockings are three-in-one stockings that address needs both in the sports world and the medical field. The temperature variant stockings may help cool the skin while exerting a desired compressive force; another version of the temperature variant stockings may actually retain heat while also exerting a desired compressive force. The stockings are available where the temperature variant components are in contact with the user's skin while the compression yarns are knitted onto the outside of the stocking. A style is also available with alternating strips, with either the cooling yarns or the heat retaining yarns running vertically and parallel to strips of compression yarns. Antimicrobial particles are infused into the cooling or heating yarns to guard again infections.

A handheld portable electrostatic device for electrostatically applying a treatment solution to a treatment site of a patient, including a housing and a cartridge removably disposed in the housing. The cartridge includes a cartridge housing and a nozzle for applying the treatment solution. An electrostatic module is provided to electrostatically charge and ionize molecules of the treatment solution of the cartridge. The treatment solution is configured to flow toward the nozzle whereby at least one electrode electrically connected to the electrostatic module physically contacts the treatment solution as it flows therethrough and applies an electrical charge to the treatment solution.

A multilayered wound dressing which is two-dimensional and has a peripheral edge is provided that includes at least one hydrophobic antimicrobial layer, at least one absorbent layer which includes a water-containing hydrogel, and a covering layer. Starting from the edge of the wound dressing, at least one incision is formed, which partially separates the wound dressing.

The invention provides a wound dressing made by an ex vivo formed combination of fibrinogen and/or fibrin containing-liquid formulation and an oxidized cellulose (OC) backing; and use thereof.

Foam wound inserts with high-density and low-density regions, methods for making wound inserts, wound-treatment methods, and wound-treatment systems.

A medical dressing (30) is disclosed, comprising an adhesive layer (3) having a skin-facing surface (6) to adhere the medical dressing to a dermal surface, wherein said adhesive layer comprises a first chemical compound incorporated within said adhesive layer, and wherein at least a portion of said skin-facing surface comprises a coating (9) comprising a second chemical compound. Also disclosed is a method of manufacturing such a medical dressing.
