Abstract: A digit wound dressing for use as a primary wound dressing or as a secondary wound dressing for digits on humans, animals and like applications. As a secondary digit wound dressing, the dressing can be used to hold a variety of different types of primary wound dressing such as sterile cotton gauze pads on top of a digit wound. The wound dressing includes an elongated bidirectional (stretches laterally along it's length) wrap which is adaptable for conforming to various sizes and shapes of digits. The wrap is made of a loose weave material and includes a releasable hook fastener at one end of the wrap. The hook fastener is used for releasable engagement with the loose weave material of the wrap when the wrap is secured around the digit. An outwardly extending ear is integrally formed on one side of the wrap. The ear is used to fold over and cover a tip of the digit.

Abstract: A disposable wound dressing and support unit for delivering a variety of standard gauze pads on top of a wound and providing for a painless access to the wound. The disposable wound dressing and support unit includes an elongated bidirectional wrap. The wrap has an outside and an inside. The inside of the wrap is used for receipt next to the skin of a patient. The wrap stretches laterally in opposite direction along it's length and is made of a loose-like material. A sterile gauze pad is either releasably attached or permanently attached to a portion of an inside of the wrap. The gauze pad is received over the top of a wound on a patient's body. The bidirectional wrap is adaptable for conforming to various parts of the anatomy of a patient and includes a releasable hook fastener at one end for securing the end to any portion of the wrap. The wound dressing and support unit may be received around the trunk, head, limb, hand and other parts of the anatomy.

Abstract: An intravenous securing device and secondary wound dressing for holding intravenous needle tubing and catheter tubing in place in a variety of anatomic locations on the human body.
