An interface dressing () comprising an elastomeric matrix (), the elastomeric matrix () being provided with a plurality of through-holes (), each through-hole () having a contour (C) around a central axis (A), in which at least some of the plurality of through-holes () are arranged so as to form at least one pattern in which each through-hole () is adjacent to at least one other through-hole (), the adjacent through-holes () having contours (C), images of which, when moved in translation in a plane perpendicular to the central axes (A) in order to merge images of said central axes (A) by means of said translational movement, do not become superposed.

Laser device

The invention relates to a dermatological treatment device () including a laser head () capable of shooting a laser beam () towards a target region () of the skin () of a patient, a pyrometer () capable of measuring the temperature (T) of the skin () in said target region (), a timer () capable of measuring the duration (D) of the laser shot, and a control means () capable of selectively activating or deactivating a laser shot, the control means () being configured to deactivate the laser shot when the duration (D) of the shot reaches a duration threshold in seconds (Sd) as determined by a linear function in the form Sd=(To&#x2212;T)/C, where T is the measured temperature (T) of the skin, To is a target temperature, and C is an average heating coefficient of the skin.

Dermatological treatment device

The invention relates to a device () for dermatological treatment, comprising a laser head () suitable for directing a laser beam () towards a target zone (), at least one fan () suitable for dissipating the heat emitted by the laser head (), and at least one monitoring means () suitable for detecting a fault in at least one fan () and for controlling at least one means () for inhibiting the laser beam () when a fault is detected.

Dermatological treatment device provided with a means for monitoring fans

Disclosed is a protective sleeve () for a dermatological treatment device comprising a laser head for firing a laser beam. The sleeve () comprises: a rigid shell () which is shaped such that it can be placed over the laser head and has a window () that can be positioned opposite the laser beam; a contact wall () arranged around the window () for contacting an area around a target area; and a means for attachment to the device, the attachment means being positioned as close as possible to the contact wall ().

Protective sleeve for a dermatological treatment device

An article having properties allowing same to absorb a body fluid. The article includes at least three paths for the propagation of fluid from a fluid capture zone to at least one storage and/or evaporation area, each fluid propagation path being delimited by a fluid barrier preventing the passage of liquid from one path to another.

Article for absorbing a physiological liquid, such as a dressing

The present invention relates to an item () having liquid (L) storage and/or discharge properties, in particular a bandage, comprising: &#x2014;a liquid-permeable proximal structure (), consisting of a material capable of inflating in the presence of liquid (L), &#x2014;a distal structure () capable of draining a liquid (L), &#x2014;a hydrophobic and non-absorbent spacer structure () extending between the distal () and proximal () structures, and being capable of locally limiting, when said material is not inflated, the exchange of liquid between the distal and proximal structures by maintaining a gap between said structures, and of authorizing a local expansion of the proximal structure in at least one zone (P) where said material is inflated in response to coming into contact with a liquid, said expansion causing the proximal and distal structure to move together locally and the transfer of said liquid from the zone of the proximal structure () having undergone expansion to the distal structure ().

Item intended to come into contact with a liquid, in particular a bandage

The subject matter of the present invention is a system for measuring interface pressure exerted on the skin, that is in particular of use in compression therapy, characterized in that it comprises: &#x2014;a supporting member bearing sensors, including at least two pressure sensors spaced out on the supporting member in order to make it possible to measure the pressure exerted at two predetermined positions; &#x2014;an electronic system connected to the sensors and capable of acquiring the values simultaneously measured by these sensors; and in that each pressure sensor comprises a transducer element, which is preferably substantially flat, said transducer element having a surface intended to come into contact with the skin in the operating position, either directly or by means of a layer of a material covering said surface of the transducer, the elastic modulus of compression of said transducer or of said intermediate layer, measured at the surface intended to come into contact with the skin, being between 30 and 500 kPa, preferably between 80 and 400 kPa and more preferably between 200 and 400 kPa. Use: compression therapy.
