Abstract: A surgical incision protection device has a body that has a longitudinal dimension and a lateral dimension; the a lateral length is less than the longitudinal length. The body has two ends. The body also has two arcuate surfaces. The arcuate distal surface is convex along the longitudinal dimension; the arcuate proximal surface is concave along the longitudinal dimension. The proximal surface radius of curvature is greater than the distal surface radius of curvature. The proximal surface also has a tunnel portion surface defining a distally-directed and laterally-extending cavity; the proximal surface has at least one skin-engaging portion surface.
