An oxygenation and temperature thermal therapy and oxygenation treatment pad with a plurality of air chambers is disclosed for treatment of skin wound tissues. The air chambers are filled and released by a valve assembly that may be separate from or integrated within the blanket. The thermal therapy and oxygenation treatment pad includes a fluid bladder for delivering hot and/or cold therapy to a patient in conjunction with oxygenation. The temperature therapy blanket may also include an air bladder for providing compression. Oxygenation is provided subsequent to initial heating in order to promote oxygen absorption by the wound tissues prior to the cooling thereof which facilitates pulling oxygen into the wound tissues. This Abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring an Abstract that allows a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain subject matter of the technical disclosure. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. 37 CFR 1.72(b).

A portable, self-contained device is described for the topical application of oxygen and the removal of wound exudates to promote the healing of skin wounds. The device includes a wound dressing that incorporates at least one electrochemical cell for generating oxygen. The device can regulate the supply of oxygen to the wound at various concentrations, pressures and dosages and is used to produce a high concentration of oxygen at the wound site. By reversing the polarity of the power source a reduced pressure can be created in a reservoir attached to our device. The reduced pressure in the reservoir draws naturally flowing exudates away from the wound. Alternately, two reverse polarity cells are used to alternately supply oxygen and draw away exudates.

A wound dressing that includes two layers for a two part solution to the needs of a healing skin wound. The first step involves a relatively closed system wherein moisture is kept near the skin to promote healing. The second step allows for removal of a top layer of the dressing to reveal a layer with a series of apertures that allows for 100% moisture vapor and oxygen transmission rates to avoid irritation and itching of the skin. At the same time, the bottom layer of the wound dressing maintains a significant outer perimeter that prevents the perimeter migration of microorganisms into the healing wound. The wound dressing can also be used as a means for securing medical instruments, such as intravenous catheters, to the skin of a patient while avoiding the itching and irritation associated with traditional methods.

A scar treatment silicone dressing used for attaching onto wound of skin, comprising: a surface layer, a connection layer, a silicone layer, and a protection film. The surface layer is moisture permeable and water resistant thus providing protection function, and on one of its sides is disposed a silicone layer through a connection layer. The silicone layer is provided with penetrating through holes for controlling dissipation of moisture of skin wounds, as such assisting skin exiting perspiration to said surface layer via said through holes, hereby reducing the possibility that the acidic metabolite in perspiration getting in touch with the skin for long period of time in causing irritations/inflammations of the skin; meanwhile, it is also capable of preventing over-dissipation of moisture from the surface of skin, thus it will not adversely affect the repair and reconstruction of the scar tissue.
