AI Technical Summary
There is a need for improved wound treatments, particularly for surgical incisions, to reduce the incidence of wound site infections, wound site openings, and post-operative pain, while minimizing opioid use and its associated risks.
A dermal patch with a support layer and medicament depot designed to be applied over a wound, providing structural support, a microbial barrier, and a moisture barrier, while delivering a predetermined dose of medicament, such as an anesthetic, to manage pain and prevent infection without requiring implantation.
The dermal patch effectively reduces wound dehiscence and infection risk, provides prolonged pain relief, and minimizes systemic drug exposure, offering a user-friendly and effective treatment for post-operative wounds.
