Toddler wrap for abdominal biopsy or excision.
Young children, especially toddlers, are anxious and uncooperative during skin procedures. Wrapping a sheet or blanket around the child is an effective way to restrain the child to maintain a sterile field. The wrap can be used for skin biopsies and small excisions on the midsection of the body, arms, and legs.
