Description

Indication for Use

Provides compression and support for mild to moderate ankle, wrist, knee, and elbow injuries.

Helps reduce swelling in limbs caused by injuries, varicose veins, or post-surgical recovery.

Used to stabilize weak or injured joints and muscles.

Helps secure wound dressings or splints in place.

Provides gentle compression to improve blood circulation and reduce vein swelling.

Used as a temporary support before applying a plaster cast.

Wraps around joints to prevent injuries during physical activities.

Ensure the skin is clean and dry.

If covering a wound, apply a sterile dressing first before wrapping.

Keep the affected limb in a comfortable position.

Anchor the Bandage: Begin at the extremity (farthest point from the heart) and wrap upward.

Apply Even Tension: Keep the bandage snug but not too tight to avoid cutting off circulation.

Use Overlapping Layers: Each wrap should overlap by 50% of the previous layer for uniform compression.

Finish wrapping just above the injury site.

Secure it with clips, tape, or tucking the end into a previous layer.

Ensure fingers or toes remain exposed (if wrapping a limb) to monitor circulation.

Sprains & Strains: Wrap firmly around the joint, ensuring moderate compression without restricting movement.
Swelling & Edema: Apply gentle pressure, wrapping from lower to upper limb to promote blood flow.
Post-Surgical Support: Secure over wound dressings or splints, ensuring stability.
Varicose Veins: Use mild, consistent compression, wrapping upwards towards the heart.
