Quick Overview

This 3-inch elastic bandage is designed for applying consistent compression and support to soft tissue injuries like sprains and strains on joints such as ankles, knees, and elbows. Its primary function is to reduce swelling (edema) and stabilize the affected area in athletic, clinical, or general first aid settings.

Field Application Steps

  1. Position the patient, expose the injury, and check circulation in the extremity.
  2. Anchor the bandage distal to (below) the injury and wrap towards the heart using figure-eight or spiral patterns with 50% overlap.
  3. Maintain firm, consistent tension without over-stretching the elastic material.
  4. Secure the end of the wrap to the bandage body using the integrated self-closure strip.
  5. Immediately re-assess circulation, sensation, and motion (CSM) and instruct the patient on signs of a wrap applied too tightly.
