I'm not going to go diving through books to answer this one. The tape should extend enough to keep air from traveling in or out of the wound. If the plastic you're using is stuck to the chest and isn't going anywhere, I'd say you've used enough. I THINK the book answer is that your tape should extend more than one inch off of your plastic that you're using for a dressing.
