The wrap comprises a sheet having front and back area portions interconnected to a crotch area portion. Each of the front and back area portions has a waistband, and structure is provided for releasably securing these waistband portions together around the waist of the person wearing the wrap. A small access opening in the crotch area portion of the sheet is positioned and dimensioned to permit instrumentation to pass therethrough for rectal examination. A flap on the outside of the sheet covers the small access opening in the crotch area portion, and this flap also has a small access opening therein positioned and dimensioned to permit instrumentation to pass therethrough for examination purposes.
