    Abstract: The invention provides a stabilizing cover to wear over an IV site or any type of wound that requires a protective pad and needs to be accessed or observed often. The device's opening/closure allows doctors, nurses, and other care-givers to check the wound site without the discomfort and inconvenience of removing adhesive tape that is typically used to secure a bandage to the wound site. Using the present invention, IV sites may be checked or changed without pulling up or down and possibly pulling the IV out. The cover also can secure gauze or other wound coverings over the wound site without use of adhesives on the patient's skin. Various sizes of snag-free fasteners, in accordance with the present invention, are used to simplify and expedite the process of checking the site. The stabilizing cover is made of fabric that is flexible, comfortable and disposable.
