Abstract: A protective cover set for a medical probe that includes a joint that seals both a moisture resistant probe cover and a surrounding wrapper that provides a barrier against microbial intrusion into the space between the outer wrapper and the probe cover. The sealed joint fixes the probe cover in place in relation to the outer wrapper. In some examples, the sealed joint secures a prefabricated probe cover with a three-dimensional non-planar shape in relation to the outer wrapper.
