Provided is a pouch (12) for maintaining hospital telemetry appartus secured to the patient. The pouch (12) includes an open-topped bag (18) formed from opposed flexible side walls (24, 26) joined at the side and bottom edges thereof, the top edges (30, 32) being open to form an opening for the insertion of the telemetry apparatus. A neck and chest strap (22, 20) are each connected to the bag at an extremity thereof, and hooking members (52, 54) are provided to secure the straps at the other extremities thereof to snugly secure the pouch to the patient. Each strap (20, 22) is laminate and includes on one side surface a non-apertured polyester material, and on the other side surface a brushed pile surface engageable with the hooking members (52, 54). The chest strap (20) further includes an elastic section (40) which allows expansion for breathing or stretching of a patient while yet holding the pouch secured to the patient.
