A hinged window bandage is presented having a base border layer open in the center to allow exposure and access to a patient's wound site and a top dressing layer. The base border layer adheres to the patient's skin on its bottom-facing side, and its upper-facing side has measurement markings printed along the edge of the open window. One end of the base border is of a rougher texture than the remaining surface area. The rougher-textured end provides stronger adhesion to the top dressing layer. The top dressing layer has a wound contact dressing and lift tabs. When the top dressing layer is lifted by the lift tabs it remains adhered to the rougher textured end of the base border layer, opening in a hinged-like manner. Additional force can be used to lift the top dressing layer completely should it need to be changed.
