    Abstract: Therapeutic medical garments for scar treatment includes a composite fabric for treating dermatological scars, wherein a layer of textile fabric and a layer of a therapeutic agent produce a composite sheet suitable for the treatment of dermatologic scars resulting from traumatic, surgical or other injuries to the skin. The composite sheet may be fashioned into garments fitted to the patient for convenience of use, optimization of skin contact, and single step application of pressure therapy and the therapeutic agent. A process of use of the medical garment for applying therapeutic agent and pressure therapies.

    Abstract: Elastomeric sheeting materials are described which are formed from the process of (1) creating a membrane comprising a semi-interpenetrating polymer network ("IPN") of polytetrafluoroethylene ("PTFE") and polydimethylsiloxane ("PDMS") by causing a matrix of PDMS to be formed in situ with a matrix of PTFE; (2) causing a surface of substantially pure PDMS to be formed on at least one side thereof; (3) allowing said PDMS compositions to vulcanize; and (4) converting said structure into useful shapes suitable for application to anatomical areas of the body. The product of the process is suitable for the treatment of dermatologic scars, such as those associated with traumatic or surgical injuries of the skin. The pure PDMS layer provides desired therapeutic effects. The semi-IPN membrane provides improved physical integrity, durability, and elastic behavior in comparison to prior art. The combined structure has increased compliancy, a thinner profile, and improved patient comfort features in comparison to existing products.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a novel wound dressing design. Particularly, this invention relates to a wound dressing which incorporates multiple distinct layers, each providing useful features and together providing a novel method of managing a variety of wound types. Moist healing, exudate management, ease of use and patient comfort are provided. In a preferred embodiment, the new dressing comprises a thin layer of gel continuously coated onto a thin film material which is laminated to an apertured mesh. Preferably, the gel coated thin film material is fenestrated or perforated. This construction improves dressing fixation, provides a semi-occlusive wound environment while simultaneously managing copious amounts of exudate.

    Abstract: A wound dressing is provided that serves a unique dual-purpose role. One surface of the dressing is comprised of a polyurethane foam and the other surface is comprised of a non-adherent thin-film of polydimethylsiloxane and polytetrafluoroethylene interpenetrating polymer networks ("IPN"). With the foam side of the dressing down against the wound, the product provides an adhesive surface for difficult fixation conditions. With the IPN side of the dressing against the wound, the dressing provides a non-adherent covering for fragile and sensitive wounds.
