ABSTRACT:
A disposable, protective reclosable wound dressing or bandage providing wound access that is easy to apply and/or open without disturbing a protective crust of blood and serum that forms over a wound, said crust being more commonly called a scab. In addition, it is convenient to apply medication without removing the bandage and at the same time, the wound may be inspected and otherwise treated while maintaining the bandage in place. The dressing is low in cost, simple and uncomplicated, non-metallic and not rigid but resilient and thus adaptable to the shape of the body part to which it is applied. One of its most important features is its capability to be repeatedly opened for inspection or for the application of medication and thereafter to be reclosed without losing any of the integrity of seal.
