[0003] However, in actual use, there is a lack of oxygen supply, which affects wound healing. In addition, the continuous seepage of exudate makes the wound moist, which is easy for bacteria to grow, resulting in poor wound healing effect and even further deterioration of the wound.

[0024] The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0025] See also Figures 1 to 4 The functional dressing for oxygen supply or negative pressure irrigation of the present invention includes a dressing body 100 and an oxygen supply and irrigation assembly 200 connected to the top of the dressing body 100. The dressing body 100 includes a contact layer 130 that is attached to the wound. A foam dressing layer 120 is connected to the top of the contact layer 130. A backing layer 110 is provided on the top of the foam dressing layer 120 for waterproofing, breathability, and bacteria resistance. The backing layer 110 is larger than the contact layer 130 and the foam dressing layer 120.

[0026] In addition, a release film 140 is attached to the bottom of the contact layer 130 to prevent dust and bacteria from entering the contact layer 130 and ensure the sterility of the contact layer 130 when in contact with the wound.

[0027] During use, the release film 140 attached to the bottom of the contact layer 130 is manually removed, allowing the contact layer 130 to contact the wound. Because the backing layer 110 is larger than the contact layer 130 and the foam dressing layer 120, the perimeter of the backing layer 110 adheres to the perimeter of the wound, securing the dressing body 100 to the patient's skin and achieving waterproof, dustproof, and antibacterial properties.

[0028] The feeding and flushing assembly 200 includes a feeding tube 210 and a negative pressure drainage tube 220. The feeding tube 210 is used to introduce oxygen or cleaning fluid into the foam dressing layer 120, and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 is used to drain the cleaning fluid in the foam dressing layer 120 and the wound exudate.

[0029] Specifically, two through holes can be opened in the middle of the above-mentioned backing layer 110, and the feeding tube 210 and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 pass through the two through holes one by one, so that the ends of the feeding tube 210 and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 pass through the backing layer 110 and extend into the foam dressing layer 120.

[0030] A ring tube 240 is embedded in the foam dressing layer 120 and is provided with a plurality of liquid inlet holes 250. The ring tube 240 is connected to the negative pressure drainage tube 220 through a connecting tube 230.

[0031] During the process of delivering oxygen to the dressing body 100, the inlet end of the supply tube 210 is connected to an external oxygen supply device, so that oxygen is delivered to the foam dressing layer 120 through the supply tube 210 and further penetrates the foam dressing layer 120 and the contact layer 130 downward, thereby increasing the oxygen content at the wound and promoting wound healing. It should be noted that the external oxygen supply device can be an oxygen concentrator, etc., and those skilled in the art can select it according to actual circumstances.

[0032] During the process of delivering cleaning liquid to the dressing body 100, the inlet end of the feed tube 210 can be connected to an external liquid supply device, and a cleaning liquid such as physiological saline is injected into the middle of the foam dressing layer 120 through the feed tube 210. Since the foam dressing layer 120 has a porous structure, it can quickly absorb the wound exudate that penetrates into the foam dressing layer 120. After the cleaning liquid is injected into the foam dressing layer 120, the cleaning liquid can flush the exudate generated by the wound adsorbed in the foam dressing layer 120, and can also penetrate into the contact layer 130 to clean the wound, thereby avoiding the growth of bacteria and promoting the healing of the wound. The above-mentioned external liquid supply device can be a device including a peristaltic pump or other type of water pump, which is used to pump physiological saline into the feed tube 210.

[0033] Since the two through holes are arranged in the middle of the backing layer 110, the feeding tube 210 points to the middle of the foam dressing layer 120. During the oxygen or liquid supply process, oxygen or saline can be evenly diffused from the middle of the foam dressing layer 120 to the surrounding areas.

[0034] After delivering the cleaning fluid, the cleaning fluid and exudate need to be drained out. Specifically, the outlet end of the negative pressure drainage tube 220 is connected to an external negative pressure device. The external negative pressure device generates negative pressure, forcing the cleaning fluid and exudate to enter the annular tube 240 through the multiple liquid inlet holes 250, then enter the negative pressure drainage tube 220 through the connecting tube 230, and finally be discharged to the outside through the negative pressure drainage tube 220. This discharges the exudate and saline solution, creating a dry healing environment for the wound. The external negative pressure device can be a medical device including a vacuum pump, which is used to generate negative pressure to draw the exudate and cleaning fluid.

[0035] In addition, since the feed tube 210 and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 are connected to the dressing body 100, it will cause inconvenience to the patient's movement. Therefore, the feed tube 210 and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 can be detachably connected in two parts. The vertical sections of the feed tube 210 and the negative pressure drainage tube 220 that pass downward through the backing layer 110 can be detachably connected to the connection section for connecting to an external oxygen supply device or an external negative pressure device. The vertical section of the feed tube 210 is provided with a first one-way valve, and the vertical section of the negative pressure drainage tube 220 is provided with a second one-way valve.

[0036] When oxygen or cleaning liquid is delivered, after the vertical section of the supply pipe 210 is connected to the connecting section, the oxygen or cleaning liquid can push open the first one-way valve, allowing the oxygen or cleaning liquid to enter the foam dressing layer 120. When the delivery of oxygen or cleaning liquid stops, the first one-way valve closes.

[0037] Furthermore, the connecting tube 230 may also be detachably connected to the connecting section of the negative pressure drainage tube 220 , and a third one-way valve is provided in the connecting tube 230 .

[0038] To drain the cleaning fluid and exudate, first connect the vertical section of the negative pressure drainage tube 220 and the connecting tube 230 to the connecting section of the negative pressure drainage tube 220. Under the action of negative pressure, the second and third one-way valves open, allowing the cleaning fluid and exudate to drain. When draining the cleaning fluid and exudate, the external negative pressure device is turned off, and the second and third one-way valves are closed. In this way, when oxygen or cleaning fluid is being delivered, the closure of the second and third one-way valves prevents the oxygen or cleaning fluid from being discharged through the connecting tube 230 or the negative pressure drainage tube 220, thereby avoiding waste of oxygen or cleaning fluid and improving the reliability of the dressing.

[0039] A waterproof membrane 121 is provided around the outer edges of the foam dressing layer 120, secured to the bottom of the backing layer 110. The bottom of the waterproof membrane 121 extends to the outer wall of the contact layer 130. The waterproof membrane 121 provides waterproofing around the sides of the contact layer 130, preventing internal exudate or saline from seeping out from around the contact layer 130.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
