SETOPRESS BANDAGE 10CM X 3.5M (12) COMPRESSION
Setopress has been classified as a Type 3c 'High Compression Bandage'. It consists of a woven bandage containing nylon and elastane yarns in the warp, and cotton yarns in the weft. During the manufacturing process, the fabric is printed with a series of rectangles that change to squares as the bandage is stretched and the recommended application tension is achieved. One side of the bandage has brown squares, the other side has green squares. When applied to an average size leg in accordance with the technique described by the manufacturer and using the brown squares as a guide, the bandage will produce a pressure at the ankle of 40 mmHg. If the green squares are used, the pressure will be lower, approximately 30 mmHg. Setopress may be washed repeatedly without affecting its performance significantly. As with all compression bandages, Setopress should not be applied to patients who have marked ischaemia or impaired arterial blood supply. The inappropriate use of the bandage in these situations could have very serious consequences. Setopress should not be applied to individuals with very thin legs (less than 18 cm circumference at the ankle). |
