Abstract: A wound dressing (1) including at least two adhesive portions (2) capable of adhering to and being removed from skin, and at least two non-elastic threads (3) held between the adhesive portions, characterised in that the spacing between the non-elastic threads allows direct access to the wound or skin between the adhesive portions.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the use of honey in medical dressings. Preferred embodiments modify honey with a viscosity increasing agent, resulting in a range of possible compositions including ointments and salves, self-adhesive gels such as for use on mouth ulcers and pustules, and pliable or flexible sheets which can be used as a wound covering. Preferred viscosity increasing agents include both particulate and continuous gels, respective examples of each including agars and alginates. Selected honeys preferably, but not necessarily, exhibit antibacterial properties other than what is merely conferred by osmolarity and sugar concentration effects.
