Abstract
A bandage has a substantially planar, flexible substrate with an upper surface and a lower surface. The upper surface of the substrate has a raised portion having a quad lobe outline and being formed of circles or ovals. A layer of adhesive is attached to the lower surface of the substrate. An aperture is formed through the substrate, and a substantially planar cap is provided having boundaries and dimensions sufficient to cover the aperture. A hinge is optionally attached to one boundary of the cap and to the substrate, so the cap may be removed or replaced or slid aside to view a wound normally covered thereby.
