Abstract: Disclosed is a liquid removal drypad and liquid removal system suitable for absorbing and removing liquid produced by an individual. The drypad can include one or more perforated conduits arranged with an absorbent material. A source of reduced pressure can be connected to the one or more perforated conduits to remove liquid from the drypad. The drypad can be positioned under a patient and liquid produced by the individual can be removed by applying reduced pressure to the drypad. The drypad can be made by combining one or more conduits with an absorbent material.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a patient repositioning sheet including an inflatable sheet having a lower layer and an upper layer that are urged apart with inflation of the inflatable sheet. The patient repositioning sheet further includes at least one inflatable support, such as an inflatable wedge. The inflatable wedge has a wedge surface that extends obliquely to the upper layer of the inflatable sheet with the inflatable wedge inflated.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention relates to a photoresist composition, comprising: (A) a polymerizable monomer, (B) a photoinitiator, and optionally (C) a polymerization inhibitor, wherein the photoinitiator has at least the following electronic quantum me-chanical energy states: (i) a ground state, (ii) a substantially optically excitable first intermediate state, and (iii) an optically excitable polymerization-inducing state, wherein the first intermediate state is energetically located above the ground state and below the polymerization-inducing state and has a lifetime of about 100 ps to 10 s, and the polymerization-inducing state is optically excitable from the first intermediate state by a single-photon excitation of a predetermined wavelength. Further aspects relate to a system comprising a photoresist composition, a method for producing a three-dimen-sional structure and a use of a photoresist composition in 3D-printing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for additive manufacturing of a 3D-structured form and to a device for additive manufacturing of a 3D-structured form.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fluid absorbent bed pad suitable for absorbing bodily fluids of a patient. The pad includes a backing layer comprising a first polymeric fiber and a second polymeric fiber, the second polymeric fiber being relatively tacky relative to the first polymeric fiber and being present in said backing layer in an amount relatively smaller than the amount of said first fiber and comprising a bicomponent fiber. The presence of the second polymeric fiber will impart a tacky nature to the backing to resist slipping and bunching of the bed pad.
