Superimposition of elastic and nonelastic compression bandages [PDF]
Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders, 2017 The objective of this study was to investigate the pressure applied by superimposed bandages and to compare it with the pressure applied by single-component bandages.Six different bandages, composed of one elastic bandage, one nonelastic bandage, or both, were applied in a spiral pattern on both legs of 25 patients at risk of venous thrombosis as a ...

Compression bandaging is the mainstay of the treatment of chronic venous leg ulcers. Using the Borgnis Medical Stocking Tester, six bandages in common use; (Blue Line, J-Press, Medirip, Elastocrepe, Crepe, and Elastoplast), were studied for the pressures attained, and the ability to sustain pressure.

Classification of Compression Bandages: Practical Aspects
Dermatologic Surgery, 2008Compression bandages appear to be simple medical devices. However, there is a lack of agreement over their classification and confusion over the use of important terms such as elastic, inelastic, and stiffness.The objectives were to propose terms to describe both simple and complex compression bandage systems and to offer classification based on in ...

Compression Bandaging: Selection and Evidence
Journal of Wound Care, 1997The use of effective compression has been shown to heal venous leg ulcers1and prevent their recurrence2whereas inappropriate compression may lead to skin damage and, in extreme cases, amputation3. It is therefore important to differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate compression. Compression is palliative rather than curative, and hence needs

Bandages and bandaging techniques for compression therapy
British Journal of Community Nursing, 2002Bandaging skills are essential for community nurses not only as a method of supporting joints, or retaining a dressing, but as an important treatment of leg ulceration. It is important to be able to choose the correct type, size, and composition of bandage and then apply it safely using the most appropriate technique as incorrectly applied bandages ...

This report describes the results of a programme of tests carried out on a new high-compression bandage, with two application aids designed to produce specific pressures on normal-size and oedematous limbs. The product was tested to examine its performance in relation to the specified criteria of a Type 3c compression bandage and other pre-defined ...
