ABSTRACT:
A device for covering, protecting and providing ready access to an infusion or wound site on a patient's limb including a first cover with cushions for supporting the patient's limb. A second cover is placed over the patient's limb into contact with the lower cover. Connecting straps removably connect the upper and lower covers together to protect the infusion site while permitting ready access to the infusion site. The covers may be provided with sections of transparent material to view the infusion site without having to remove the device. The device may also be used to immobilize a joint, by strapping the covers together across the joint.
