Patient in with a burn has a "Vaseline Adaptic baseball wrap" applied to his hand?

Vaseline dressing I know. Adaptic dressing I know. Baseball wrap/dressing I cannot seem to find or verify anywhere.

Also, I can't find all three of them together anywhere either. (nor just Vaseline and Adaptic together- and since Adaptic looks to also be petroleum jelly like Vaseline I don't quite get it- but I'm willing to buy it.)

Lenard splint?
Subject: Lenard splint?

This is a wound care note.  They use these splints often, and I have been spelling it Lenard because that's the spelling I found when I Googled it.  It's not in my Stedman's surgical equipment book or my Stedman's on line.  Now the doc spells is (like he's noticed it's misspelled), but spells it Lynard.  Nothing, but nothing medical comes up on Googling that spelling.  Does someone for for sure what this is and how to spell it?  Thanks in advance!
