Zusammenfassung:	When thin-film dressings are used to secure a device, the dressing might need to stretch in some areas to accommodate varying sizes of a device, while remaining stiffer in some areas to limit stretching of the materials. Excessive stretching of the materials can cause the dressing to peel away from the skin or cause the underlying device to not be sufficiently secured. The disclosed dressing can be used to secure a device and includes perforations near the device securement area to allow for isolated regions of adjustability to accommodate a secure fit between the dressing and device.
