Abstract: A nasal dressing holder having a central band positionable under the nose for holding a nasal dressing or packing in place, a pair of support straps on either side of the band positionable across the cheeks, a pair of thin elastic loops which are positionable around the ears for holding the device in place, and means for releasably adjusting the strap length. In a preferred embodiment, a double-sided hook tab is positionable between a folded end of the support strap and another portion of the strap and is releasably attachable to loop material on the strap, to enable releasable and adjustable attachment of the device to a patient. The tension applied to the dressing or packing can be varied by adjusting the folded connection between the strap and the hook tab.
