A nose compression device to treat a nosebleed. The device has a wire frame with a straight middle section and two side sections angled with respect to the middle section to apply an inward compression against an outside of the person's nose. The device also includes a support member attached to the wire frame. And, a single nasal sponge attached to the body and having a central sponge portion and two opposing sponge end portions, each of said two opposing sponge end portions configured for insertion into the person's nasal passages.

A periocular dressing includes a base layer composed of a nonwoven material; a top layer having a composition bound to a polyurethane film, the composition including a hydrogel with a percentage by weight of bacitracin, the top layer to come into contact with a user's skin; and a removable membrane secured over the top layer and to be removed; the polyurethane film of the top layer is adhesively secured to the base layer; and the top layer promotes vasoconstriction and antibacterial properties.

A therapeutic compress assembly, system, and method for treating an area of a user is disclosed herein. The therapeutic compress assembly includes an elastic fabric compress and an absorbent pad. The elastic fabric compress is stretchable in a length direction and a width direction. The absorbent pad is coupled to a first side of the elastic fabric compress. The absorbent pad may be impregnated with a medication or an oil. In use, the therapeutic compress assembly is applied to the area of the user.

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.

A dressing for an open wound includes a cover layer dimensioned for positioning relative to a wound bed. The cover layer permits an evacuation of the space around the wound bed such that a sub-atmospheric pressure may be established to stimulate healing and facilitate the removal of fluid from the wound. Multiple performance zones in the cover layer allow the wound dressing to remain in position through repeated cycles of evacuation without placing undue strain on the wound bed. An outer peripheral zone may include a high peal-strength adhesive while an intermediate zone may include a shear resistant adhesive. A central zone may be devoid of any coating to maximize moisture transmission through cover layer.

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.

Dressing for skin care, having a main compress covered by a membrane with an adhesive contour which extends beyond this compress and which is designed to be applied to the skin, this dressing having an inlet port for a treatment liquid on the main compress, and the membrane having, on at least part of the surface opposite this compress, a permeability that permits exchange of gases.

A wound dressing is made from a tubular inner layer and at least one outer layer disposed radially beyond the inner layer. The inner layer permits egress of fluid from weeping wounds, prevents desiccation of skin disposed beneath the inner layer, and prevents desiccation of ointment disposed between the inner layer and the skin. The at least one outer layer absorbs fluids that leak through the inner layer, protects the inner layer from outside contaminants, and prevents fluids from escaping. The at least one outer layer is affixed to the inner layer, and each of the layers is elastic in at least the radial direction. Optionally, a layer of ointment may be applied to an inner surface of the inner layer. Note that the tubular inner layer may be either pre-formed or formed at the time of application.

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.

A method for treating burns and abrasion wounds by applying a cyanoacrylate glue, using a method whereby a quantity of glue is initially applied to a flexible film of releasable material that does not adhere to the glue after it has set, and then transferring said glue to a wound site with light pressure applied through said film sufficient to control bleeding. Said application of glue under pressure will result in a thin layer of glue over the wound site that will react with the moisture present on the wound surface, thus polymerizing quickly and forming a protective coating on the wound that is flexible and sufficient to resist pathogenic penetration while simultaneously allowing the slow passage of moisture at a rate that will maintain an ideal relatively dry condition for the wound, to prevent infections that tend to develop with excessive moisture.
