Abstract: A securement or stabilization device for holding a cannula or catheter to a patient. The stabilization device may be configured as a universal holding device, and be able to accommodate tubes of varying sizes and shapes, to eliminate the need for one-to-one pairing of the cannula or catheter to its corresponding shaped and sized holder. The stabilization device allows the cannula or catheter to be secured at a desired angle and for an extended period to a patient's skin.

Abstract: Hydrocolloid adhesive compositions, wound dressings comprising hydrocolloid adhesive compositions and methods of producing such compositions are provided. A hydrocolloid adhesive composition comprises a base polymer, a hydrocarbon tackifier, an absorbent, and a plasticizer. The hydrocarbon tackifier may comprise a cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon modified with aromatic functional groups. A wound dressing comprising the hydrocolloid layer is disposed on a carrier film. The wound dressing may comprise a discontinuous hydrocolloid layer. The hydrocolloid adhesive compositions are substantially transparent to improve visibility through a dressing. The compositions may further include materials that reduce allergic reactions by the user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and device are provided for utilizing a sliding wall hopper. A sliding wall hopper may include one or more sliding walls that may slide with respect to one or more outer supports of the hopper. The one or more sliding walls may make contact with at least a portion of the material moving through the hopper. The material may be discharged to at least a hopper discharge or a conveyor device. Some embodiments may be configured for use with biomass as the material, but other materials may also be utilized.
