Abstract: A surgical pin compression wound dressing stabilizing system includes a compressive wound dressing module capable of securing with one or more surgical pins with a locking mechanism. The stabilizing device has a body for compressing the wound dressing towards the wound about one or more surgical pins.

Abstract: A surgical pin compression wound dressing stabilizing system includes a compressive wound dressing module having a central orifice and radial slit, and a stabilizing device having a longitudinal passageway and a vertical slit, the slits allowing insertion of the module and stabilizing device on a surgical pin at a wound site with the surgical pin dispose in the orifice and passageway. The stabilizing device has an upright post with the longitudinal passageway and a bottom base with a recessed central cavity open at a bottom that receives and mates with an upper portion of the module. The bottom base has a lower outer annular surface surrounding the central cavity for engaging a peripheral rib on the module to enable application of an equal distribution of a downward compressive pressure on the module.

Abstract: A surgical pin compression wound dressing stabilizing system includes a compressive wound dressing module having a central orifice and radial slit, and a stabilizing device formed of a single piece of material having a longitudinal passageway and a vertical slit, the slits allowing insertion of the module and stabilizing device on a surgical pin at a wound site with the surgical pin dispose in the orifice and passageway. The stabilizing device has an upright post with the longitudinal passageway and a bottom base with a recessed central cavity open at a bottom that receives and mates with an upper portion of the module. The bottom base has a lower outer annular surface surrounding the central cavity for engaging a peripheral rib on the module to enable application of an equal distribution of a downward compressive pressure on the module.

Abstract: A surgical pin compressive wound dressing housing is described as a device that couples with a wound dressing material or sponge of a specific type and provides a protective closed environment for the surgical point of entry wound where surgical pins or wires are applied. In addition, this device serves to stabilize such surgical pins or wires as they protrude from the surgically made pin site wound upon a patient's skin. Such pins or wires are often utilized, but not limited to, the fixation of fractured bones or when anatomic stabilization is needed. The unique cup like design of the wound dressing housing allows it to couple with a specific type of wound dressing material that has similar geometric features. The top of the wound dressing housing has a central pin hole whereby a pin stem extends upward.
