Abstract:
A dressing for covering a portion of the anatomical surface of a living being, said dressing being able to adhere to the skin, the mucosa and/or a wound on any portion of a living being without exposing the skin to a significant stress after application and said dressing showing a permanent deformation created before, during of after application of the dressing and wherein the dressing is optionally covered in part or fully by one or more release liners or cover films to be removed before or during application.
Abstract:
A wound dressing comprising an adhesive layer having a skin-facing surface and a non-skin-facing surface, the non-skin-facing surface being provided with a backing layer, the dressing comprises a central portion comprising an absorbent adhesive, and an border portion surrounding the central portion, wherein the skin facing surface of edge portion of the adhesive layer is continuous and the skin facing surface of central portion is interrupted by interconnected cavities. The cavities provide a storage room and distribution center for wound exudates enabling the dressing to be applied to fast exuding wounds.
Abstract:
An article having an adhesive surface for adhering to human skin, said article comprising a first component constituting a continuos layer and at least a second component which is located in indentations in the adhesive surface of the first component without being in direct contact with the first component, said second component being separated from the first component by a cup shaped barrier layer, characterised in that the barrier layer is provided with a rim which extends into a flange.
Abstract:
A dressing for covering a portion of the anatomical surface of a living being, said dressing being able to adhere to the skin, and/or a wound, said dressing comprising a backing layer and a layer of skin-friendly adhesive for adhering to the skin, said dressing having a pattern of indentations wherein the indentations are in the form of a pattern of connected indentations not being linear and progressing in at least three main directions shows considerably increased wearing time.

Abstract:
A dressing for covering a portion of the anatomical surface of a living being, said dressing being able to adhere to the skin, the mucosa and/or a wound on a protruding portion of a living being without exposing the skin to a significant stress after application and said dressing comprising a substantially water-impervious film and a skin-friendly adhesive, which dressing has a low modulus allowing and easy deformation during application but yet a sufficiently high elasticity to essentially prevent deformation of wrinkles after application, wherein the dressing is optionally covered in part or fully by one or more release liners or cover films to be removed before or during application and wherein the dressing has the general form of a boomerang facilitates the perfect adaptation during application to cover cracks at the tip of e.g. a finger or toe at the edge of the nail.
