Technical Specifications

Applications & Usage

• Wound Dressing: Used to hold sterile gauze or pads firmly against a wound.
• Compression: Helps reduce swelling in cases of minor sprains or strains.
• Support: Provides light support to joints to prevent further injury.

Installation & Application Guidelines

1. Ensure the skin area is clean and dry before application.
2. Apply the bandage with moderate tension, ensuring it is snug but not so tight that it restricts circulation.
3. Overlap each turn by approximately half the width of the bandage to ensure even pressure distribution.
4. Secure the end with medical tape or a clip (not included).

Safety & Maintenance

• Check Circulation: Always monitor the area below the bandage for discoloration, numbness, or tingling, which may indicate the bandage is too tight.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain fabric integrity.
• Single Use: For hygiene purposes, do not reuse a bandage that has come into direct contact with blood or bodily fluids.
