wet-wrap dressing/ wet wraps
Bei der im Englischen auch als „wet-wrap dressing" bezeichneten Methode werden die betroffenen Hautareale eingecremt und mit einem angefeuchteten Schlauchverband abgedeckt. Darüber kommt eine weitere, trockene Lage des Schlauchverbands. Die Behandlung soll die neurodermitische Haut mit Fett und Feuchtigkeit versorgen, kühlen, typische Symptome lindern und Hautveränderungen schneller bessern.

The usefulness of wet-wrap dressings, which employ the use of a moist physical barrier, usually incorporating a topical corticosteroid, was described in 30 children with AD by Goodyear, Spowart, and Harper (1991). Since that time, wet wraps of various forms have been used in cases of AD flares unresponsive to conventional therapies, such as topical medications, or in those cases with unbearable itch (Goodyear & Harper, 2002).
Wet-wraps work by a variety of mechanisms: (a) cooling the skin by evaporation, thus decreasing itch; (b) increased moisturization and softening of the skin, thereby enhancing the penetration of medications; and (c) serving as a mechanical barrier against scratching (Pei, Chan, & Ho, 2001).

: also possible, though it sounds "less medical" (unfortunately, medicine often takes pride in producing incomprehensible terms/sentences)
