ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a novel bandage construction in which a dressing is held in place over a wound by means of one or more external arms capable of releasably attaching to an anchor that remains adhered to the skin. Subsequent dressing changes may be accomplished by detaching the arm and anchor mechanism, replacing the dressing, and reattaching the arm to the anchor so that the patient does not require repeated procedures adhering the dressing to the skin. The bandage design minimizes irritation and discomfort to the patient and is convenient for repeated dressing changes.
