| titleOfInvention | Moisture barrier for indwelling catheters and the like |
| abstract | A moisture barrier (10) includes internal and external layers that resist moisture. A moisture absorbing material (28) occupies the region (22, 24) delimited by the two layers. The peripheral edges (18, 20) of the inner and outer layers (22, 24) adhere to the surface surrounding the protected area. The adhesion edge (20) of the outer layer (24) is spaced from the adhesion edge (18) of the inner layer (22), forming a space (36) therebetween. The space (36) communicates with the open region which contains the moisture absorbing material (28). The space (36) has a deflection path which directs moisture away from the adjoining portions of the seal and routes moisture to the moisture absorbing material (28). Preferably, this moisture absorbing material (28) has different visible characteristics varying according to the presence or absence of moisture. The moisture sensing material (38) is positioned so that it can be seen through a light transmitting portion of the outer layer (24) of the barrier. The moisture barrier (10) is used to effectively prevent moisture from entering a protected area. The moisture barrier (10) can also be used to immediately alert the user that an unwanted invasion of moisture is threatening the protected area. |
