FourFlex Multi-Layer Compression Bandage Features
FourFlex Compression Bandage System Benefits
- Padding Bandage:
– Soft and absorbent next to tender skin, this layer is highly conformable to enhance patient comfort - Conforming Bandage:
– Elastic and conformable material delivers additional absorbency and prepares the leg for application of the next layer - Compression Bandage:
– This bandage layer delivers compression while maintaining a low profile. The WrapGuide application line in the center of the bandage aids in accurate application - Cohesive Bandage:
– The final layer contributes compression and holds the entire dressing in place with its cohesive technology, which enables it to adhere to itself but not to skin or other surfaces
