Skin grafting device cover system to control clinical soil
A newly filed patent (Publication Number: US20240032961A1) describes a clinical soil control system designed to prevent fluid ingress into a skin grafting device. The system includes a device cover made of a flexible polymer sheet that accommodates a cartridge with microneedles. A gasket assembly is affixed to the device cover to secure it to the cartridge, forming a seal to prevent soil from entering the handheld device of the skin grafting system. The gasket assembly includes a projection that surrounds the cartridge and features notches for alignment.
Furthermore, the patent details an absorptive material within the cartridge's peripheral housing, aligned with the microneedle chamber. The system also includes a transparent device cover with an elastic band for user convenience. The device cover can be directly secured to the cartridge, forming a singular component through welding. These innovative features aim to enhance the efficiency and safety of skin grafting procedures by minimizing the risk of contamination and ensuring a secure seal between components.
