ABSTRACT:
An adhesive coated thin film dressing (1) in combination with an applicator (4) to facilitate its application is described. The applicator (4) comprises a pair of superimposed laminar members (5,6) hinged at one end. The lower member (6) is adapted to be grasped at the end (13) remote from the hinge (7). The upper member (5) supports the thin film dressing and is in releasable contact with a major portion of the adhesive surface (3) of the thin film (2). A protector (11) is in releaseable contact with the remaining portion of the adhesive surface (3) and extends beyond the hinged end of the upper member (5). In one preferred form the dressing has a medicated pad or a medicated area located on the adhesive side of the coated film.
