Abstract:
A medical garment wrap for safely holding lines or tubing implanted in a human or animal patient for medical purposes. The garment has a wrap portion for passing around a patient's body. The wrap portion has a pouch for holding multiple incoming lines. The pouch is closed by fasteners to hold the lines. The hub of the line into the patient's body is received and held in a hub holder. Typically several lines divide from the hub holder into ports, and the ports are held by one or more holders for lines and clamps. The pouch, the hub holder and the line holders are attached to the wrap portion. One end of the wrap has fingers with hook-and-loop fasteners that define an opening for passage of the line from the hub holder into the patient's body, through the wrap portion when the fingers are fastened to the opposite end of the wrap portion.
