What to buy with SurePress High Compression Bandage


How to use SurePress Compression Bandage?

Preparations Prior to Application of SurePress Bandage

  • Cleanse the wound according to normal practices, rinse well and dry the surrounding skin
  • Following application of a primary dressing, SurePress Absorbent Padding (available separately) may be used as an underlayer. This soft, absorbent wrap helps to distribute graduated compression and protect skin from any exudate leaking from the primary dressing.
  • Determine whether the limb size is 'normal'(Ankles between 18-26cm) or 'large' using a standard measuring tape
  • Select the small or large rectangular extension indicator on the bandage. The small rectangle should be selected for “normal” limb sizes and the large rectangle for “large” limb sizes.

How to Apply SurePress Compression Bandage?

  1. Start the bandage at the center of the ball of the foot with the lower edge of the bandage at the base of the toes.
  2. Wrap the bandage using slight tension 1 1/2 times around the foot.
  3. Note: Below steps are to be performed stretching the bandage until the selected rectangle becomes a square
  4. Anchor the bandage with thumb and start to turn around the heel, then wrap once around the heel area.
  5. Wrap the bandage over the front of the ankle and under the arch of the foot to cover the gap.
  6. Make a turn around the ankle area and proceed up the leg in a spiral fashion overlapping the bandage on each turn by 50% of its width i.e. to the base of the rectangular extension indicators.
  7. Upon reaching the area just below the knee, cut off any excess bandage and secure with tape.
