Abstract
The present invention relates to a compression bandage for treating wounds comprised of a linear elastic compression wrap and a sterilized polymer foam layer containing a plurality of antimicrobial dyes with at least one dye being gram positive and at least one other dye being gram negative and a biofilm reduction agent and wherein said foam is secured to said linear elastic compression wrap.
Claims21
A compression bandage for treating wounds comprised an elongated strip of a skin contacting polymer foam containing a plurality of antimicrobial dyes with at least one dye being gram positive and at least one other dye being gram negative, a biofilm reduction agent and an elongated elastic compression wrap secured to said skin contacting foam layer.
A compression bandage for treating wounds comprised an elongated layer ranging from about 3 mm to about 5 mm in thickness of a polymer foam layer containing a plurality of antimicrobial dyes with at least one dye being gram positive and at least one other dye being gram negative and a biofilm reduction agent, an elongated elastic compression wrap secured to said elongated foam layer, and a silicone adhesive on the base of said foam layer to keep the wrap in a stable position on the skin.
A compression bandage kit comprising a container, length of elastic compression wrap, a elongated length of polymer foam which can be mounted to said length of said elastic compression wrap, said polymer foam being taken from a group of polymers consisting of polyvinyl formal, polyvinyl acetal, polyurethane, or a mixture of polymers. said length of polymer foam containing a plurality of antimicrobial dyes with at least one dye being gram positive and at least one other dye being gram negative, a biofilm reduction agent, a surfactant and an elastic sleeve.
