摘要

In accordance with the present invention an improved adhesive structure for adhesion of an article to a fluid-emitting wound and the surrounding normal skin is disclosed. The adhesive structure comprises a first contact region comprised of a fluid-interactive adhesive material which provides adhesion to the wound and surrounding normal skin; a second contact region comprised of the same or a different adhesive material, which provides adhesion betweeen the first region, or another region integral with the first region, and the article; and, an absorbent region comprised of an absorbent fibrous, fabric or foam material intermediate the first and second regions whereby enhanced cohesion between the first and second regions and between the second region and the article, under conditions of heavy fluid emission, is provided.
