Abstract: Trimmable conformable wound dressings, kits containing the same and methods of using the same. The wound dressings may protect a treatment site from microbial contamination or other disturbances while a wound heals or to enable the application and maintenance of vacuum over the treatment site. The wound dressings may include first and second sections of support layer material on opposite sides of one or more intermediate sections of support layer material. The first and second sections of support layer material meet the intermediate sections of support layer material along peel tab junctions that provide peel tabs.

Abstract: When thin-film dressings are used to secure a device, the dressing might need to stretch in some areas to accommodate varying sizes of a device, while remaining stiffer in some areas to limit stretching of the materials. Excessive stretching of the materials can cause the dressing to peel away from the skin or cause the underlying device to not be sufficiently secured. The disclosed dressing can be used to secure a device and includes perforations near the device securement area to allow for isolated regions of adjustability to accommodate a secure fit between the dressing and device.

Abstract: A tube securement system is disclosed that comprises a coupling article formed from a backing layer with first major surface and a second major surface. The coupling article comprises an anchor section, a capture section, and a longitudinal portion extending along a longitudinal direction separating the anchor section from the capture section. There is a first adhesive on the first major surface of the backing at the anchor section and a second adhesive on the first major surface of the backing at the capture section. The first major surface of the backing at the longitudinal portion is free of adhesive.

Abstract: Medical dressings having flexible and conformable borders when attached to skin and devices such as, e.g., catheters, etc. to facilitate strong adhesive securement of the medical dressings to skin over extended periods of time. The medical dressings include a relatively low modulus backing layer paired with a relatively high modulus support material the backing layer, and a tubing slot configured to, e.g., stabilize a catheter other tubing on the skin of a patient. The backing layer may extend outwardly from the support material over a substantial majority of the perimeter of the medical dressing to form a border of adhesive material with elasticity to resist lifting from a patients skin.

Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, the base layer having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a leg. The leg can be connected to and extending from the first end, can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and can be configured to secure a nasogastric tube.

Abstract: A medical dressing that is highly flexible and conformable over skin, while maintaining strong adhesive securement to skin over extended periods of time. The dressing comprises a backing layer, support material, and a plurality of specifically placed slits in the support material, which allow for stretching and recovery of the backing layer.

Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer, and a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube. The coupling layer can further include a cutaway region extending from a periphery of the coupling layer adjacent the second end into a central portion of the coupling layer, such that the second end comprises legs that are separated by the cutaway region, and such that the first end is free of the cutaway region.

Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer.

Abstract: A nasogastric tube securement system. The system can include a base layer and a coupling layer. The base layer can be configured to be adhered to a nose, having a first major surface comprising a skin-contact adhesive and a footprint area of A. The coupling layer can include a first end comprising coupling means configured to be repositionably coupled to the second major surface of the base layer; a second end configured to secure a nasogastric tube, and a middle section connecting the first end and the second end. The first end of the coupling layer can have a footprint area of at least 0.3 A. The middle section can be elongated along a longitudinal direction, and the first end and the second end can each be wider than the middle section in a lateral direction oriented substantially perpendicularly with respect to the longitudinal direction.
