摘要

The invention provides an adhesive sheet for use in a wound dressing or the like, comprising: a backing layer (1); a layer of adhesive (2) applied to a first side of the backing layer (1) for adhering the adhesive sheet to a surface; and an elongate conduit (5) for a fluid provided in or on said first side of the backing layer (1), wherein the conduit is provided with an inlet (8) for introducing fluid into the conduit (5) while the adhesive sheet is adhered to the surface to assist removal of the adhesive sheet from the surface. The invention also provides a similar adhesive sheet in which the elongate conduit is replaced by an elongate reservoir (22) containing a liquid release agent, wherein the reservoir (22) can be ruptured to release the liquid therefrom into the adhesive layer while the adhesive sheet is adhered to the surface to assist removal of the adhesive sheet from the surface.
