As attorney for the inventor of the innovative Wound Irrigation System we are currently seeking manufacturing companies to license, purchase patent rights or enter into a royalty agreement for this timely invention.
The Wound Irrigation System can be attached to a sink, tub, or shower stall. The water to cleanse the wound can be directed through a hand held flexible hose, or through an antibiotic treatment unit where the water is filtered or disinfected. The Wound Irrigation System displays the temperature of the water prior to transmission. It can also pulsate and/or heat the water prior to application to the wound.
Objects of the present invention:
- to provide a wound irrigation system which can be used for outpatient treatment
- to provide a shower head attachment having the ability to selectively filter tap water and add an amount of antibiotic to said water
- to provide a shower head attachment having the ability to selectively filter tap water and add an amount of antibiotic to said water before conducting said water to a hand held unit for release
- to provide a shower head attachment having the ability to selectively filter tap water, add an amount of antibiotic to said water, measure the temperature of the water and display the temperature before conducting said water to a hand held unit having a trigger for selective releasing said water through an adjustable nozzle allowing a variety of patterns and water pressures during wound irrigation
The following pictures are meant to display possible physical characteristics of the present invention and are not to be taken in a limiting sense. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
