The Crepe Elastic Bandage developed by Farmalastic is a medical device mainly used for the support of dressings, other bandages and compression in traumatisms that require it, such as sprains and strains. Made from cotton and lycra, latex free.
The Farmalastic Crepe Elastic Bandage is a product for medical use, made from a fabric made of cotton and hypoallergenic lycra. Free of latex and other components associated with allergic reactions. It comes in a roll format, with a length of 4 metres if unrolled completely. Its width is 7 centimetres, a suitable size to complete its main functions.
The composition and structure of the fabric allows it to be porous and breathable, allowing the skin to breathe well without letting interior humidity escape or allowing exterior humidity to negatively affect the area. Easy to adapt due to its excellent elasticity that allows it to be placed in joints, extremities and other areas of the human body.
It is mainly indicated for adults with trauma that requires bandaging, such as sprains or strains. It is also suitable for the support of dressings and other bandages. In addition, it is recommended for use to promote the prevention of injuries during demanding sporting activities.
This product should always be used on clean, dry skin, thus preventing infection and the proliferation of skin-damaging bacteria. It is advisable to always use a standard size of 30 cm to be able to cover the area to be bandaged well, although if it is to hold small dressings, much less can be used.
The 30 cm can be measured during or before dressing, developing this amount before the dressing is applied. The appropriate bandaging technique associated with each area of the body should be used so that its use does not damage or harm the area in the long, medium or short term. In addition, if this product is used to apply a compressive effect, it is advised that it be applied by a health professional.
Poor technique or over-tightening of the bandage can have negative effects and impair the recovery from the associated trauma.
Avoid using this product if the person to whom it is intended to be applied is allergic or hypersensitive to any of its components. Stop using this bandage if any unfavourable skin reaction is observed on contact with the bandage. It is preferable not to use directly on open or bleeding wounds.
98% cotton and 2% lycra.
