Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dressing having a lateral (x) and a longitudinal (y) extension. The dressing comprises a backing layer, a wound pad contoured by a pair of lateral edges extending in parallel to each other in the lateral direction, and an adhesive layer having a wound facing surface and a non-wound facing surface. The wound pad is arranged between the backing layer and the adhesive layer, and the backing layer extends beyond the periphery of the wound pad to define a border portion along the contour of the wound pad. A release liner is releasably attached to the wound facing surface of the adhesive layer. The release liner is divided by a first dividing line extending in the lateral direction of the dressing to form at least a first removable portion, and a second removable portion, wherein the first and the second portions overlap along the first dividing line to form a first grip member.
