MULTI-LAYER WOUND CARE DEVICE HAVING ABSORPTION AND FLUID TRANSFER PROPERTIES

This disclosure relates to a multi-layer wound care device having absorption and fluid transfer properties. The wound care device contains capillary force one-way pumps that are capable of transporting fluid, such as wound exudate, away from a wound site to the opposite side of the wound care device, which functions as a segregated fluid reservoir. This fluid transport mechanism generally aids inreducing wound maceration by removing excess wound fluid and the protease enzymes and infectious bacteria contained within the wound fluid. The wound care device performs this function, often times for multiple days, without the loss of the physical integrity of the wound care device. In addition to providing a uni-directional fluid transport mechanism, the wound care device provides improved absorption properties. 本公开涉及具有吸收和流体传递特性的多层伤口护理装置。该伤口护理装置包含毛细管力单向泵，该毛细管力单向泵能够使流体(诸如伤口渗出液)离开伤口部位传输到用作隔离的液体储存的伤口护理装置的相对侧。该流体传输机构通常通过去除多余的伤口液体以及伤口液体中所含的蛋白酶和感染菌来帮助减少伤口的浸软。伤口护理装置执行此功能，通常持续数天的时间，而不损失伤口护理装置的物理完整性。除了提供单向流体传输机构外，伤口护理装置还提供了
