Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The applicator comprises a rigid body 20 having a rigid body enclosure 30 for receiving a wound dressing, and an ejector 40 for ejecting the wound dressing from the rigid body enclosure and onto a patient's wound. This enables effective and aseptic handling of a wound dressing and application of the wound dressing onto a patient's wound. The ejector may be a biased lever coupled to the body. In use the rigid enclosure holds a moist dressing, such as a hydrocolloid dressing, and the ejector breaks a seal between the dressing and the applicator.
