Patent number: 11957547Abstract: A medical dressing is provided. The dressing has a central portion and a border portion, and comprises a backing layer, an adhesive body contact layer and a pad arranged in the central portion between the backing layer and the adhesive body contact layer. The pad is symmetric about a longitudinal center line and the dressing comprises a lobed portion on each side of the center line. The central portion of the dressing has a tensile strength in the longitudinal (y) direction of at least 60 N, preferably at least 70 N at an elongation of 25%, as measured by the test method ASTM D 882-12. The medical dressing may be used for pressure ulcer prevention, such as at the sacrum region of a human body.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2017Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: MÖLNLYCKE HEALTH CARE ABInventors: Patrick Rodzewicz, Jenny Flach, Maria Gustin Bergström, Karin Östan, Sandra Tillman, Angelica Andresen, Anita Haraldsson Hedbratt

Patent number: 11285050Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2017Date of Patent: March 29, 2022Assignee: MÖLNLYCKE HEALTH CARE ABInventors: Karin Ostan, Angelica Andresen, Malin Martensson, Patrick Rodzewicz

Patent number: 8545469Abstract: A component for securing attachment of a medical device, such as a wound dressing or an ostomy bag is disclosed, to the skin of a patient, said component including a first plastic film coated with a skin-friendly adhesive on the lower side thereof. According to the invention a body of soft, compressible and elastic material is disposed between the first plastic film and a second plastic film, said first and second films extending beyond the compressible body around the circumference thereof and are affixed to each other in parts extending around the circumference of the compressible body so that a closed space containing said compressible body is formed, said closed space being in contact with the surrounding atmosphere by a non-return valve, and in that the first plastic film includes through-going openings in a region delimited by the compressible body.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2009Date of Patent: October 1, 2013Assignee: Mölnlycke Health Care ABInventors: Angelica Andresen, Dennis Hansson, Eva-Karin Daun, Charlotta Strandeberg

Patent number: 8545466Abstract: Device for treating wounds with reduced pressure. The device comprises a sealing film, which is placed sealingly around the wound to cover the latter, an underpressure source, as well as a tube, which connects a space over the wound and beneath the sealing film to the underpressure source. The interior of the tube comprises a longitudinal first strand made of a hydrophobic material, as well as a second strand, made of an open-pored hydrophilic material, extending longitudinally over at least a part of the length of the tube. The said material strands are enclosed in a tube casing made of a flexible material.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2008Date of Patent: October 1, 2013Assignee: Mölnlycke Health Care ABInventors: Angelica Andresen, Ulf Johannison
