Zusammenfassung:A fluid collection device may include a fluid impermeable barrier and a fluid permeable body in some examples. The fluid impermeable barrier includes an inner surface at least partially defining a chamber. The fluid impermeable barrier also defines an opening to the chamber extending longitudinally along the fluid impermeable barrier. The chamber may be configured to accept a fluid permeable body. The fluid permeable body may be at least partially exposed by the opening defined by the fluid impermeable barrier and configured to wick fluid from a surface of the fluid permeable body into the chamber. In some examples, the fluid permeable body may include a fluid permeable membrane and a fluid permeable support. In some examples, the fluid permeable membrane may be omitted. In some examples, the fluid permeable support may include at least a portion that is not fluid permeable.
