| abstract |
An oxygen impregnated material suitable for an oxygenating therapeutic to treat wounds with oxygen. The impregnated material avoids the applicational complications associated with conventional oxygen therapeutics, such as reliance on gaseous oxygen, systemic toxicity, and patient immobility. This impregnated material can be used, for example, in bandage-type dressings, or a drape of a vacuum-assisted closure (VAC). This impregnated material can also be used in a diaper to treat and reduce the formation of a rash on the skin. |
