A dressing for use with medical procedures is provided that permits application of the dressing prior to the commencement of a medical procedure and wherein the dressing remains on the site after the procedure has been completed. The dressing comprises an absorbent pad, a hinged door and an aperture through which the procedure site can be accessed or it comprises an adhesive bandage part, which is bent and secured in such a way that the bandage forms a door and a hinge, and an adhesive flap component which anchors the bandage to the skin. The bandage is positioned in such a way as to infer or define the location where the procedure is to be performed. In either embodiment, when it is deployed, the door or bandage is rotated around the hinge and can be set in place at a procedure location prior to the procedure. Importantly, the device can be deployed with one hand, to complete the bandaging of a procedure site simultaneous with or within a moment after the completion of the medical procedure. The device is not size-limited by the disclosure. The invention may be small enough to use to perform an injection or it may be large enough that a major surgical procedure can be performed through the aperture. Methods of using the dressing of the present invention are also provided. |
