Abstract
A flexible plastic warming bag may carry a flexible strip having opposed end portions. The strip is attached to the bag at at least one end portion of the strip, in which circumstance the other end portion of the strip projects across the periphery and carries an adhesive surface. Thus the bag may be rolled into essentially tubular configuration about the limb of a patient and retained there. The strip may also be attached at both ends by an adhesive, with the points of attachment being on opposed faces of the bag. The adhesive preferentially adheres to the strip end portion, so that one of the strip end portions may be peeled away, and the bag. rolled in either direction and retained in such configuration.
