Abstract:
A novel moist steam heating cabinet unit is used as a medical device for humidification, hydration and dispensing of medicinal Hot Packs. The technology provides multifunctional options for both medicinal and non medicinal hot pack treatment as well as for other applications and uses, for example—including creation, manufacturing and curing of pharmaceutical compounds that require a controlled steam process and method. A moist heating device is a unit designed and constructed to deliver a timed, heated fluidic steam coming from a moisture generating heating source. This moist heating by employing steam heat activates the therapeutic potential of a portable topical compress or hot pack wrap applicator, of various shapes and sizes, for transdermal use and neat applications of a “wet medicinal dressing.” The moisture provides the activating liquid and fluidic environment for the flowing through, titrating, and permeating delivery of drugs or medicaments held within a medicinal pack.
