Tilapia Dried Tissue – Revi-Aid

Abstract

The invention is employing the application of tilapia skin that has been processed and preserved in a dried tissue stage. To reach dried tissue stage, the fish skin is required to undergo treatment of Gludehyde and Glycerin solutions that is performed inside the clean room. The skin in new dried stage is then integrated with an adhesive strip and sterile gauze inside the clean room to create a new type of Ready-To-Use bandage that can be utilized as medical dressing for skin injuries, namely Revi-Aid.

Claims

1. A new type of bandage called Revi-Aid contains sterile gauze and dried tissue fish skin. The dried tissue fish skin, specifically Tilapia, naturally contains collagen to accelerate the healing process of skin injuries or flesh wounds.

2. This type of bandage called Revi-Aid is created to intentionally cover the open wound for the burned patients; therefore, the size of Revi-Aid will be larger comparing to traditional medical dressing bandages.

3. The adhesive strip and the non-stick plastic coating paper, along with the sterile gauze layer, will protect the dried tissue fish skin from exposure to air. That will preserve the sterile stage and dried stage for the fish skin until it is removed and ready-to-use when applying the fish skin surface to the open wounds or skin injuries. The purpose of the Revi-Aid will minimize the risk of open wounds or skin injuries from exposure to contaminated air, which may cause infections.

Description

TECHNICAL

[0011] The invention is employing the application of tilapia skin that has been processed and preserved in a dried tissue stage. To reach dried tissue stage, the fish skin is required to undergo treatment of Gludehyde and Glycerin solutions that is performed inside the clean room. The skin in new dried stage is then integrated with an adhesive strip and gauze inside the clean room to create a new type of Ready-To-Use Bandage that can be utilized as medical dressing for skin injuries, namely Revi-Aid. The Revi-Aid contains the skin at dried tissue stage that has been sterile, treated, and packed inside the clean room, hence, the skin can be Ready-To-Use at convenience without going through the rigorous process of additional steps of cleaning and preparing the skin prior to use.

BRIEF SUMMARY

[0012] An innovative breakthrough with dried tissue technology using fish skin will transform how burned victims are treated. Currently, burned victims undergo a painful process of harvesting healthy skin from other parts of the body to cover the burned area. With this new dried tissue fish skin, burned victims will no longer required to go through the excruciating painful procedure to heal. This dried tissue fish skin can be stored as dried material; hence can be implemented directly into bandages. Burned victims can now place the bandage with the dried tissue fish skin over the burned area. The dried tissue fish skin will then transfer over the burned area and create a new layer of skin to heal. Currently a majority of the companies only work on Research and Development for wet tissues. Wet tissues for fish skin are capable of healing the burned skins, however, they cannot be implemented into bandages as only dried tissues can. Fish skin wet tissues also require a long period of time to rinse off chemical before safely apply on the burned patients. The cost of the dried tissue fish skin can be very economical, and that will provide affordable treatment for patients.
