Two-layer (Clinistretch plus Clinistretch Soft) cohesive short-stretch bandage
Compression bandaging of limbs with venous disorders (venous leg ulcers) and the control and reduction of chronic oedema and lymphoedema in the lower limbs and arms. Suitable for patients with an ABPI of >0.8–1.2.
Not recommended for: patients with an ankle circumference, when protected with padding, of <18cm; patients with diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis, unless after specialist referral and under supervision, due to the risk of microvascular disease; arterial disease (ischaemia) according to vascular assessment; ABPI of <0.8 or >1.3 unless after specialist referral and under supervision and regular follow-up; congestive heart failure as compression can lead to cardiac overload; sensory disorders of the limb, i.e. peripheral neuropathy. Do not use if known sensitivity to the fabric of the bandage.
Two-layer compression system that offers therapeutical compression and manages skin conditions at the same time. The first layer, infused with calamine, soothes and protects the skin, reducing irritation and maintaining skin integrity. The second layer delivers consistent therapeuticsl compression.
Two thin layers 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.
Designed for reduced compression. Two thin layers 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.
Two-layer system (green packaging) designed for sustained, therapeutic compression with reduced sub-bandage resting pressures. Comprises a latex-free foam padding layer and a latex-free, cohesive, compression bandage. Once applied, the two layers bond to form a single-layer bandage. Can be worn for up to 7 days.
