Abstract: A composite wound dressing and delivery apparatus includes a substantially transparent dressing layer having a lower surface that is coated with a pressure sensitive for applying the dressing layer over a wound to define a reservoir in which a negative pressure may be maintained. A substantially transparent backing layer adhered to the lower surface of the dressing layer in a releasable manner, and a vacuum port is centrally located on the dressing layer. The vacuum port is adapted to provide fluid communication between a vacuum source and the reservoir through the dressing layer. A targeting grid associated with either the dressing layer or the backing layer includes regularly spaced reference marks along at least two axes extending from the vacuum port.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for gaming that arranges and uses numbers on its game board in a manner consistently with the first several rows of Pascal's Triangle. The gaming method and apparatus includes the use of tokens or chips that bear indicia corresponding to the same numbers of the game board, and the use of personages and their characteristics according to a point system. The chips may be acquired/discarded and traded for personages according to a point system. Furthermore, a subset of the chips may include a bonus indicator on the back which may be traded for bonus cards that are advantageous for play.
