Abstract: A computer implemented method for procedure tray management, comprising storing in a database a set of procedure tray types, displaying, on a user interface, a list of procedure tray types, and displaying, in response to a user input, a list of items included in a selected procedure tray type. The method further includes automatically determining a recommended modification to the selected procedure tray type by identifying recommended item additions as items which are included in a template associated with the selected procedure tray type and not included in the selected procedure tray and electronically communicating the proposed modified procedure tray type to at least some users associated with the selected procedure tray. In response to a confirmation from at least one user the selected procedure tray type is updated in the database.

Abstract: Disclosed are materials comprising a fiber material and an agent having at least one having improved tensile strength, in particular wet tensile strength, vis-à-vis fiber materials known from the art. While these fiber materials may be of use in various fields, in particular household products, hygiene products and the like, these fiber materials are of particular use in wound treatment. Also disclosed is a method for producing these materials.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a wound dressing having a substrate, and a wound dressing manufactured by such a method are described. The method has a step of providing a sacrificial layer of material to be perforated by means of a hot pin perforator, in order to remove any molten residues on the heated pins of the hot pin perforator, before the same pins are used to make holes in the substrate. The presented method is cost effective, robust and reduces the risk of contaminating substances being embedded in the substrate during the hole making process.

Abstract: A medical dressing, specifically adapted to comprise a machine-readable tag for allowing efficient and safe inspection during use of the medical dressing is described. A medical dressing arrangement and to a computer implemented inspection method applied in conjunction with the medical dressing is also described.

Abstract: The present invention refers to an oxygen carrier, preferably hemoglobin or myoglobin, for use in the treatment of an unpleasant feeling of a body surface due to a disease or a disorder.

Abstract: Disclosed is a medical dressing having a pad and a border portion. The pad can have a rim and the border portion extends along said rim. The medical dressing can be arranged in a first substantially planar configuration and be folded along a first line, and a second portion of said medical dressing is formed and a second substantially cup-shaped configuration. The first portion can be facing and contacting said second portion. Said first substantially planar configuration the first and second portions can be connected by means of a fixed connection along a second line, which defines a second line segment having a first and a second end-point. The first and second line segments are connected at their respective first end-points such that an angle between 90 and 175 degrees is formed between the first and second line segments when the medical dressing is in the first substantially planar configuration.

Abstract: A composite material (and its manufacture) is described that has (i) a first layer comprising an absorbent fiber material that is in contact with the area of use on its first side, (ii) a second layer comprising an absorbent material, said second layer being arranged on the second side of said first layer, wherein a plurality of channels extends through the entire first layer, from said first side to said second side thereof, and further extends into at least a portion of said second layer. This composite is of particular use in wound treatment.

Abstract: A medical dressing is described having a substrate with a first chemical compound, said substrate having a first surface, wherein said medical dressing further includes an adhesive layer having a skin-facing surface to adhere said medical dressing to a dermal surface, wherein at least a portion of said skin-facing surface has a coating with a second chemical compound. Also described is a method of manufacturing such a medical dressing.

Abstract: A medical dressing having a geometrical plane of symmetry. A border portion extends along the contour of the pad. A central portion of the dressing has a smaller width perpendicular to the plane of symmetry than the widths of the adjoining portions. The medical dressing comprises a gripping tab which is coplanar with the border portion and which projects outwardly from the border portion. The medical dressing may be used for pressure ulcer prevention, such as at a heel of a human body.

Abstract: A self-adhesive member for adhering to and covering a portion of a user's skin is disclosed. The self-adhesive member has a backing layer having a self-adhesive coating. The backing layer has a first and a second portion, where the first portion surrounds the second portion, and where the first portion has a first row of slits extending along an outer edge of the backing layer and being distanced a first distance therefrom and the second portion being either void of slits or being provided with fewer slits per area unit than the first portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a wound dressing for a wound, specifically adapted for reducing the risk of disturbance of the wound when removing the wound dressing. The present disclosure also relates to a wound treatment method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydrophilic foam material, which is of particular use in wound treatment, and to a method for producing said hydrophilic foam material. The hydrophilic foam material has nucleating particles, wherein at least 85% of all foam cells in said foam material have an average cell size of 0.01 mm2 or less.

Abstract: The present invention refers to an oxygen carrier, preferably hemoglobin or myoglobin, for use in the treatment of an unpleasant feeling of a body surface due to a disease or a disorder.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a computer implemented method for adaptively selecting at least one wound product for a patient, for example adapted to take into account a healing trajectory determined for a wound of the patient. The present disclosure also relates to a corresponding computer system and computer program product.

Abstract: Disclosed is a medical dressing having a carrier material and a composite material. The composite material includes oil droplets dispersed in a matrix. The matrix includes one or more cellulose derivatives and nanocellulose.
