Objects of the present invention:
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage that is safe to use by providing a hermetically sealed, hygienic environment to promote the healing of a wound by protecting it from airborne contagions, water, and pressure from external sources
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage that is fabricated of a non-permeable, malleable material that conforms to the surface being applied thereon wherein all peripheral edges of the bandage have an adhesive base
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage that is easy to use because the semi-rigid qualities of the dome-like form of the bandage make it easy to hold securely while peeling off the adhesive backing
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage wherein the transparency of the bandage allows for accurate placement over the wound and the semi-rigid adhesive base applies pressure uniformly and simultaneously to the epidermal tissue surrounding the wound thereby preventing the stretching and squeezing and subsequent further traumatization of the injury that is common with conventional bandages

- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage that is comprised of an adhesive base section which mates with a replaceable detachable blister pack canopy to permit access to the injury without disturbing the integrity of the adhesive seal to the skin
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage wherein two bandages could be fastened together, adherent base to adherent base, to form an airtight container to carry items such as pills or stool samples
- to provide a transparent, span-over-the wound bandage that can be used to limit access to items such as control buttons or light switches
