Patent number: 11844673Abstract: Trimmable conformable wound dressings, kits containing the same and methods of using the same. The wound dressings may protect a treatment site from microbial contamination or other disturbances while a wound heals or to enable the application and maintenance of vacuum over the treatment site. The wound dressings may include first and second sections of support layer material on opposite sides of one or more intermediate sections of support layer material. The first and second sections of support layer material meet the intermediate sections of support layer material along peel tab junctions that provide peel tabs.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2021Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: David R. Holm, Richard L. Jacobson, James M. Sieracki, Phong V. Ha, Steven B. Heinecke

Publication number: 20230277385Abstract: The disclosed medical dressing includes a dressing body with an overlying carrier system that is releasably secured to the dressing body. The carrier has a perimeter carrier portion overlying the perimeter of the dressing body and a central carrier portion overlying some, but not all, of a central area of the dressing body. This carrier construction allows for better handling of the medical dressing during application by giving both stability in some areas and stretching and flexibly in areas without the carrier.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2021Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Guido Hitschmann, Benjamin Vollmann, Richard L. Jacobson, Daniel Dawidowski

Publication number: 20220168546Abstract: The disclosed tube securement device (100) attaches to the patient's body (200) and to the tube (300), while allowing for a section of the tube to be detached from the tube securement device. The tube securement device comprises a backing (110) with adhesive coated sections (120, 130). The backing comprises a first end section (120), a second end section (130), and a midsection (140), separating the first end section from the second end section. The tube securement device further comprises a first adhesive (122) on at least a portion of the first major surface (112) of the first end section (120), a second adhesive (132) on at least a portion of the first major surface (112) of the second end section (130), and wherein the first major surface (112) of the midsection (140) is free of tacky adhesive.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2020Publication date: June 2, 2022Applicant: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: AMANDA C. ENGLER, DENISE J. ZIEMANN, RICHARD L. JACOBSON, KIMBERLY A. SCHOMMER, ELIZABETH A. TATROE, MICHAEL J. TURNBULL, JEFFREY D. COTTON, JENER DE OLIVEIRA

Patent number: 11246761Abstract: Medical articles comprising a conformable wound dressing and delivery system. The wound dressing generally comprises a backing having a first major surface and a second major surface, an adhesive on the second major surface of the backing, and an absorbent pad proximate the second major surface of the backing. The backing extends beyond the perimeter of the absorbent pad, typically beyond the entire perimeter of the pad. The perimeter of the wound dressing has a concave feature that exhibits a local minimum. An axis extends from the local minimum to the perimeter of the wound dressing opposite the local minimum. The carrier overlies at least a portion of the backing on each side of the axis but does not overlie the backing along the axis. The wound dressing is especially designed for use on round or irregular shaped body parts, such as an elbow or heel.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2017Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: David R. Holm, Richard L. Jacobson, Kevin G. Lundquist, James M. Sieracki

Patent number: 11246762Abstract: A conformable wound dressing system that includes a backing and a dressing support layer. The backing has a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, a perimeter that includes first and second lateral edges extending from a first end to a second end, and a longitudinal axis extending form the first end to the second end. An adhesive is on the first major surface and a dressing support layer is on the second major surface. The dressing support layer has a first section and second section where the first section is disconnected and spaced apart from the second section to define a gap extending from the first end of the backing to the second end of the backing.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2020Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: David R. Holm, Richard L. Jacobson

Publication number: 20210393203Abstract: Medical dressings having flexible and conformable borders when attached to skin and devices such as, e.g., catheters, etc. to facilitate strong adhesive securement of the medical dressings to skin over extended periods of time. The medical dressings include a relatively low modulus backing layer paired with a relatively high modulus support material the backing layer, and a tubing slot configured to, e.g., stabilize a catheter other tubing on the skin of a patient. The backing layer may extend outwardly from the support material over a substantial majority of the perimeter of the medical dressing to form a border of adhesive material with elasticity to resist lifting from a patients skin.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2018Publication date: December 23, 2021Applicant: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: STEVEN B. HEINECKE, RICHARD L. JACOBSON, KRYSTAL JO SCHEIBEL, YING ZHANG, DONALD G. PETERSON, PHONG V. HA

Publication number: 20210228417Abstract: A medical dressing comprising a backing layer and a self-supporting substrate. The backing layers form a perimeter around the self-supporting substrate and holds the self-supporting substrate in place on a wound. The medical dressing forms a sealed environment surrounding the wound such that a negative pressure can be maintained in the sealed environment through the valve.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Applicant: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPANYInventors: Phong VanThanh Ha, Richard L.

Patent number: 10561536Abstract: A conformable wound dressing system that includes a wound dressing and a dressing support layer. The wound dressing includes a backing having two major surfaces and a perimeter that includes first and second lateral edges, an adhesive disposed on one major surface of the backing and the dressing support layer removably mounted on the other major surface. The dressing support layer includes juxtaposed first and second sections that define a gap between them. Each section comprises a medial portion and at least four spokes extending therefrom toward a lateral edge. The at least four spokes include two outer spokes and at least two spaced-apart inner spokes. At least two of the at least four spokes of each section extend beyond the lateral edge to form peripheral support layer tabs.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2014Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: David R.
