ABSTRACT:
A surgical dressing used to anchor medical devices, such as chest tubes, to a patient and then to occlude any cut made in a patient for accommodating such medical device includes elongate bands connected to the dressing and to the medical device to connect that medical device to the dressing. The dressing includes a dressing upper portion and a dressing lower portion, and the preferred embodiment of the dressing has adhesive on a rear surface of the dressing upper portion and on the front surface of the dressing lower portion. The dressing upper portion adhesive attaches the dressing to a patient, and after removal of the medical device from a patient, the dressing lower portion is folded over to be superimposed with the upper portion, and is attached to the dressing upper portion via the adhesive on the front surface thereof to occlude the cut made in the patient for accommodating the medical device.
