• the first end body edge is approximately parallel to the second end body edge,
• the first end body edge has a first length, and
• the second end body edge has a second length that is different from the first length,
• wherein the notch and the window portion overlap when the protective cover is worn to cover the catheter insertion site,
• attaching the at least two side edges of the body portion to one another at least at or near each of the first end body edge and the second end body edge, so as to form at least a partial tubular shape.

A kit for covering a catheter insertion site, the kit comprising:

• a protective cover, including:
• a body portion, the body portion including a notch and, an approximately trapezoidal outer shape prior to being worn or fully assembled, wherein the body portion comprises a first end body edge approximately parallel to a second end body edge, and wherein the first end body edge has a first length, and the second end body edge has a second length that is different from the first length;
• a window portion incorporated within the body portion, wherein the notch and the window portion overlap when the protective cover is worn to cover the catheter insertion site;
• and
• a packaging for protectively surrounding the protective cover.
