ABSTRACT:
A bandage for removably retaining a replaceable dressing against a patient's skin includes a tape having an adhesive inner surface with pressure-sensitive adhesive thereon and a nonadhesive outer surface, a base portion on the tape for adhesive securement to a patient's skin, a tab formed integrally with the base portion by a folded-over portion of the tape, a first opening in the base portion for placement over a wound on the patient's skin for receiving the dressing, a second opening in the tab exposing an adhesive portion of the inner surface of the tape for receiving and adhesively holding a pad which overlies the first opening when the tab is in a closed position, and cooperating hook and pile fabric on the tab and the base portion containing the first opening for selectively securing the tab to the base portion. A method of fabricating the above described bandage includes the steps of cutting the first and second openings in the tape prior to folding over the central portion, attaching the pad to the exposed adhesive in the second opening of the tab, and attaching the cooperating hook and pile fabric to the tab and base.
