A surgical cast venting device comprises an elongate strip of porous fabric material and a number of relatively short, elongate plastic tubing members distributed over and attached to the elongate strip on one side thereof. The tubing members each extend substantially parallel to this, one side and are open ended. The elongate strip is adapted for winding around part of a human body prior to application of a surgical cast. Preferably the tubing members each have holes distributed along their respective lengths so as to permit the passage of air in and out of these members. The elongate strip can be tapered at opposite ends thereof. The fabric material can be gauze and the tubes can be attached thereto by adhesive.
