Conformable drape cover dressing

A wound dressing system, comprising:

• a rectangular wound dressing having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a longitudinal axis extending from the first end to the second end;
• the wound dressing comprising:
• an elastic film backing, the backing comprising a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, and a perimeter that includes first and second lateral edges, the first and second lateral edges extending from the first end to the second end;
• an adhesive disposed on the first major surface;
• and
• a dressing support layer comprising juxtaposed first and second sections removably mounted on the second major surface of the backing, wherein the juxtaposed first and second sections define a gap between the first and second sections, wherein the gap extends substantially from the first end to the second end;
• wherein each of the first and second sections comprises a medial portion extending from at or adjacent to the first end to at or adjacent to the second end, and at least four spokes extending perpendicular therefrom toward the first and second lateral edges, wherein the at least four spokes comprise a first outer spoke extending substantially to and along the perimeter at the first end, a second outer spoke extending substantially to and along the perimeter at the second end, and at least two spaced-apart inner spokes disposed therebetween;
• wherein at least two of the at least four spokes of each of the first and second sections extend beyond the lateral edge to form peripheral support layer tabs;
• wherein the dressing support layer defines a plurality of covered portions and uncovered portions of the backing.
