Claims20
A reusable bandage apparatus, comprising:
- a dome configured to cover and enclose a skin wound, the dome comprising a continuous unperforated surface defining a physical barrier to prevent contact between the skin wound and external objects;
- a flange extending around a base of the dome, wherein the flange is configured with a plurality of protrusions underneath the flange, whereby the plurality of protrusions is configured to rests on non-injured skin surrounding the skin wound;
- and
- the plurality of protrusions located underneath the flange and arranged circumferentially around the flange on the underside thereof in a geometric pattern based on height, size, and shape of the skin wound, wherein the plurality of protrusions is configured to create a gap between each of the plurality of protrusions, and each of the plurality of protrusions raise a height of the flange above the non-injured skin.
A wound care apparatus, comprising:
- a reusable dome configured to cover and enclose a wound area, the dome comprising a continuous unperforated surface constructed from an optically transparent, ultraviolet-resistant material defining a physical barrier to prevent contact between the wound area and external objects;
- a flange extending around a base of the dome, the flange configured with a plurality of protrusions underneath;
- and
- the plurality of protrusions located underneath the flange and configured to lift the flange above the skin, wherein the plurality of protrusions are arranged circumferentially around the flange in a geometric pattern based on height, size, and shape of the skin wound, where the plurality of protrusions are configured to create a gap between each of the plurality of protrusions, and each of the plurality of protrusions raise a height of the flange above the non-injured skin.
