  Benefits  

Provides clinically relevant levels of compression

Comprilan will give graduated compression when applied with a spiral technique.  When two bandages are applied one over another, the system will give a high level of sustained compression useable for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.

Light and conformable

The lightweight nature of the bandage and 100% cotton composition allows easy application whilst being well tolerated by the skin.

Washable and reusable on the same patient

Comprilan bandages will maintain their compression properties after washing and can be reapplied to the same patient. 

  Indications  

Comprilan bandages are indicated to assist in the management of venous and mixed aetiology leg ulcers.  They are also effective in helping to control oedema associated with venous disorders.

  Contraindications / Precautions  

Should not be used on patients with an ankle:brachial pressure index (ABPI) of less than 0.5 or on patients with advanced small vessel disease.

Failure to detect significantly reduced arterial flow can result in pressure necrosis, amputation or even death.

Wear time - Comprilan bandages should ideally be applied as early in the day as possible and removed at night.
