Detailed description
Biflex 17+ 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, the Biflex 17+ Bandage provides advanced compression and support.
Fitting instructions are straightforward, allowing for easy application on arms or legs. The graduated markings aid in controlling compression levels with ease of use2, ensuring tailored treatment outcomes.
