Detailed description

Biflex 16+ Graduated Elastic Compression Bandage is an elastic compressive bandage to treat venous and lymphatic conditions. 
Crafted from a blend of polyamide, viscose, polyester, and elastane, it is designed to provide softness, comfort1, and breathability for the patient1.

Suitable for individuals suffering from chronic oedema, posttraumatic oedema, or those in need of postsurgery support, this bandage serves as an alternative to compression stockings. It's long stretch and elastic design that allows good pressure maintenance over time, including during activity3 and it's especially adapted for hospitalized, bedridden, immobile or obese patients3,4

Whether used for venous leg ulcers, symptomatic treatment of acute thrombosis, or lymphoedema management, Biflex 16+ Pratic Bandage provides advanced compression and support.
Fitting instructions are straightforward, allowing for easy application2 on arms or legs. 
The graduated markings aid in controlling compression levels, ensuring tailored treatment outcomes.
The unique stirrup was developed to help and secure the placement on the foot, on the beginning of the product set up.
