A venting device adapted for placement around body part prior to application of a surgical cast includes a piece of fabric and aerating devices affixed to the inner surface of the fabric. Padding material preferably made of ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) or PLASTAZOTE and is affixed upon at least some of the aerating devices and is positioned to be disposed between the body part and each aerating device. Padding material may form a plurality of padding envelopes into which aerating devices may be inserted. Aerating devices are preferably elongate perforated tubular members. Padding material may be elicoidally wrapped along the length of the tubular members. Padding material can have perforations some of which align with perforations in the tubular members. To assist the tubular members to bear the weight of the body part, rigid cylinders can be placed over portions of the tubular members and stoppers at the end of tubes can be provided. A preferred device is stretchable over the body part and a layer of the tubes is arranged elicoidally upon the inner surface of the fabric. The padding allows enhanced comfort for surgical cast venting devices which are applied directly to the skin.
