Abstract: A thermometer sheath in a multiple pack comprising a continuous support foil (1) of paper on which a lower and an upper plastic foil (2 and 3) are placed, whereby the plastic foils (2, 3) are welded together and the lower plastic foil (2) is releasably attached to the support foil (1) by means of a heat sealing line (4), which delimits a number of case-shaped thermometer sheaths closed at one end, which are detachable from each other and from the support foil (1), and whereby the lower plastic foil (2) is longer than the upper plastic foil (3) thus that a flap is formed at the case orifice. A stiffening strip (5) of plastic material is positioned between the upper and the lower plastic foil (2 and 3) transversally to the longitudinal direction of the case and attached to said plastic foils (2, 3) by two opposite parts (4',4") of the heat-sealing line (4), whereby the stiffening strip (5) extends beyond the end of the upper plastic foil (3).
Abstract: Apparatus for use in training the bladder of an incontinent patient including a pressure chamber connectable to the bladder with a catheter and a collecting container connected to the pressure chamber by a narrow tube. The pressure chamber is to be lower than the bladder and the collecting container is below the pressure chamber, while the tube extends upwardly from the pressure chamber. In use, the pressure chamber fills up, pressurizing the bladder, until urine reaches the highest part of the tube whereon the pressure chamber and bladder are emptied and the pressure reduced.
Abstract: A hygienic protective shield, as seat shield, protecting glove, shield for thermometers or other temperature sensing devices and shields for other instruments, which shield comprises two adjacent plastic foils, attached to each other to form a space for receiving and enclosing an object, at least two covering foils attached on each side of the two-layer plastic foils, and two stiffening plastic strips arranged to overlap th covering foils. The shield can be packed in sterile condition and remains sterile until the movement when used thereby avoiding contamination.
