Embodiment Construction

[0076] exist figure 1 The absorbent article 1 according to the invention presented in is applied via the proximal face 2 to healthy or injured skin, and / or to mucous membranes. The absorbent article 1 is preferably a dressing, but the ensuing description applies equally to another article, such as a diaper or a personal hygiene article.

[0077] The article 1 comprises one or more absorbent layers capable of accumulating liquid contained by the proximal face 2, for example exudate from a wound.

[0078] As shown, therefore, the article 1 comprises a first absorbent layer 10 (referred to as the proximal absorbent layer or container) parallel to the proximal face 2 in two directions (i.e. when the article has an elongated shape). The length direction of the article and the width direction of the article) extend.

[0079] The near-absorbent layer 10 extends over a thickness e, which is preferably constant and greater than or equal to 1 mm.

[0080] The contact with the skin o...

Abstract

The invention relates to an article (1) to be applied against the skin, mucous membranes or a wound, in order to absorb a liquid, such as an exudate, said article comprising: a distal absorbent layer (20); one or more visual indicators (50) that change appearance upon contact with the liquid, said visual indicator(s) (50) being in contact with the distal absorbent layer (20); an interface (30) intended to come into contact with the skin or mucous membranes; at least one proximal absorbent layer (10) located adjacent to the interface (30) between the interface (30) and the distal absorbent layer (20); and at least one layer forming a water barrier (40) located between the proximal absorbent layer (10) and the distal absorbent layer (20) and provided with at least one passage (41) through which the liquid that has passed through the proximal absorbent layer (10) can reach the distal absorbent layer (20).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to articles for application to the skin or mucous membranes, more particularly, but not exclusively, to dressings. Background technique [0002] It is necessary to know the extent to which padding is applied to an absorbent article (especially a dressing) applied to a slowly exuding wound, taking into account the best possible use of it, in order to be able to decide whether to replace it. [0003] In fact, by disrupting the healing process, the fact that the dressing is changed too frequently leads to poor progress of the wound healing process, but also increases the risk of bacterial infection. [0004] However, regardless of the patient in question, frequent dressing changes are generally recommended in order to avoid prolonged contact with media that is too moist for humans. However, the extent of wound exudation is largely patient dependent and has proven difficult to quantify in advance. [0005] Where the liquid t...
