Coban 2 Compression System Kit

Coban 2 Compression System Kit

3M + KCI

Description

Two thin layers (purple packaging) provide the stiffness required to generate sustained working pressures/low resting pressures to reduce oedema/prevent venous reflux without the bulk of traditional bandages. The interlocking layers cohere to each other, creating an inelastic sleeve that conforms to the limb and reduces the potential for bandage slippage and discomfort.

Indications

Venous leg ulcers, lymphoedema and chronic oedema and other conditions where compression therapy is appropriate

Contraindications

Recommended for patients with ABPI ≥0.8

Price

Kit contains one roll each of padding foam and bandage. 5cm×2.7m, £5.12; 10cm×3.5m, £8.40; 10cm×4.5m, £11.99
