Abstract

Anti-staining hydration mediums for medical products and packaged medical products containing the same.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A hydration medium for hydrating medical devices, comprising:
a monomeric polyol(s) in an amount of between about 1 wt % and about 10 wt %; a surfactant(s) in an amount between about 0.01 wt % and about 10 wt %; hydration liquid being the balance of the hydration medium; and wherein a viscosity of the hydration medium is at most about 10 cP, and a surface tension of the hydration medium is at most about 65 mN/m.

2 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the viscosity of the hydration medium is between about 1 cP and about 9 cP.

3 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein surface tension of the hydration medium is at most about 45 mN/m.

4 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the surface tension of the hydration medium is between about 45 mN/m and about 65 mN/m.

5 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the monomeric polyol(s) comprise one or more of glycerol, erythritol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1-4 butanediol and sucrose.

6 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the surfactant(s) comprises one or more of an anionic, non-ionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactant.

7 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the hydration medium comprises water.

8 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , wherein the hydration medium comprises saline.

9 . The hydration medium of claim 1 , further comprising additional agents.

10 . A packaged medical product, comprising:
a medical product; a hydration medium comprising:
a monomeric polyol(s) in an amount of between about 1 wt % and about 10 wt %;
a surfactant(s) in an amount between about 0.01 wt % and about 10 wt %;
hydration liquid being the balance of the hydration medium; and
wherein a viscosity of the hydration medium is at most about 10 cP, and a surface tension of the hydration medium is at most about 65 mN/m.

11 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the medical product comprises a hydrophilic intermittent urinary catheter.

12 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the viscosity of the hydration medium is between about 1 cP and about 9 cP.

13 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein surface tension of the hydration medium is at most about 45 mN/m.

14 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the surface tension of the hydration medium is between about 45 mN/m and about 65 mN/m.

15 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the monomeric polyol(s) comprise one or more of glycerol, erythritol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1-4 butanediol and sucrose.

16 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the surfactant(s) comprises one or more of an anionic, non-ionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactant.

17 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the hydration medium comprises water.

18 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , wherein the hydration medium comprises saline.

19 . The packaged medical product of claim 10 , further comprising additional agents.
