Appl. No.:

17/657474

Inventors:

- El Cajon CA, US
Dennis Joseph - Milton GA, US
Qihua Xu - Cary NC, US
Juan Alejandro Saavedra Cisneros - Dacula GA, US
Jill W. Jones - Avondale Estates GA, US

International Classification:

A61F 5/451
A61F 5/44

Abstract:

Examples relate to fluid collection devices, and related systems and methods. In some embodiments, a fluid collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier and a fluid permeable body. The fluid impermeable barrier may include a first end region, a second end region, a front side, and a back side. The fluid impermeable barrier defines an opening on the front side, one or more apertures on the back side distal to the opening and positioned between the first end region and the second end region, and a chamber within the fluid collection device. At least one of the first end region or the second end region may be substantially planar. The fluid permeable body is positioned within the chamber and extends across at least a portion of the opening.

International Classification:

A61F 5/44
A61F 5/455

Abstract:

Embodiments of the invention relate to devices, systems, and methods for collecting fluid from a wearer. The fluid collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier defining an interior chamber therein, a permeable body in the interior region, a conduit disposed within the interior chamber, and a multiport valve assembly. The multiport valve assembly allows a user to select a port at a longitudinal point in the interior chamber through which the collected valve can be removed.

International Classification:

A41D 19/00

Abstract:

Apparatus, systems, and methods for sealing an interface are provided. For example, a protective guard is provided for sealing an interface. The protective guard comprises a body comprising a fluid impervious material and proximal and distal segments that may comprise a superabsorbent or a non-superabsorbent material. The proximal and distal segments are positioned on first and second sides, respectively, of the interface. The protective guard extends about the interface to create a fluid barrier. In some embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be an elastic material, such as an elastic band, and in particular embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be nitrile. In further embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be an expandable material that expands upon contact or interaction with a fluid.

International Classification:

A41D 13/12
A41D 13/002

Abstract:

A personal protection and ventilation system is provided. The system includes a gown having front and rear panels, a hood, and visor; a fan; an air tube; and a helmet. The fan is positioned between the wearer and a body-facing surface of the rear panel. The front panel and at least a portion of the hood are formed from a first material including a first spunbond layer, a spunbond-meltblown-spunbond laminate, and a liquid impervious elastic film disposed therebetween. The first material has an air volumetric flow rate of less than about 1 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm). The rear panel is formed from a second material including a nonwoven laminate having an air volumetric flow rate of about 20 scfm to about 80 scfm. Therefore, the fan is able to intake a sufficient amount of air from the environment through the rear panel to provide cooling/ventilation to the hood.
