The present invention is a fistula sleeve for covering and protecting a fistula on the inside of an arm. The sleeve grips the wrist and adjustably and snuggly fits around the wider contours of the arm without imparting pressure on the fistula. The sleeve partially opens to expose the fistula for dialysis and daily care. A narrower wrist region secures around the wrist. An elongated forearm region wraps around the forearm, and a smooth central region covers the fistula. The wrist and forearm regions are independently secured. Securement strips have semi-rigid backings that stiffen the side portions of the sleeve help secure and remove the sleeve with one hand, and form a spine to help maintain the alignment of the sleeve on the arm. A double layer of material is stitched together along its perimeter, while the inner layer is free to slide relative to the outer layer in the smooth central area that engages the fistula. The sleeve stretches laterally to grip and secure around the wrist, while allowing the forearm portion to snuggly fit around the contours of the forearm and accommodate the fistula in a non-pressure generating manner.

A hand glove includes a glove body having a dorsal side, a palmar side, a radial side, an ulnar side, and a hand portion including a palm section, a dorsal section, a plurality of digit sheaths, and an opening for providing access to an interior of the glove.
