ABSTRACT:
A wrap for placement around an anatomical part to hold a wound dressing in place on that part. The wrap is made of a tubular net material substantially elastically stretchable in the longitudinal and transverse dimensions. End portions of the wrap are relatively non-stretchable in a direction transverse to the wrap, but the medial portion of the wrap is relatively stretchable in the transverse direction to permit inspecting a wound dressing held in place by the wrap. The overall length of the wrap is elastically stretchable to prevent the wrap from functioning as a tourniquet, and the end portions of the wrap are relatively non-stretchable in the transverse direction so as to maintain the relatively flat rectangular configuration of those end portions.
