Implant protective pad for use with seatbelts

摘要

A protective pad for positioning over a medical device subdermally implanted in the chest of a passenger between the shoulder strap of an automobile seat belt assembly and the chest of the passenger. The pad has a generally continuous lateral wall or a U-shaped lateral wall having an inner end positionable on the passenger's chest and an opposed outer end. There is a top wall superimposed over the outer end of the continuous lateral wall to form a recessed area beneath this top wall over the medical device. A pair of fabric flaps extend from the generally continuous lateral wall in opposed relation to each other. These flaps are each equipped with VELCRO strips to be engageable with each other around the seat belt shoulder strap. Alternatively, a single flap equipped with a VELCRO strip can engage a similar strip on the top wall.
