Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a compression bandage for application to a body portion.
  • Woven or knitted elastic bandages in both adhesive and non- adhesive forms are used to provide support and to assist in the repair of soft tissues such as the healing of strained muscles and in the treatment of various venous conditions.
  • bandages are provided with a central guideline to allow the bandage to be applied with a 50% overlap, thus providing two layers.
  • These rely on the tapered shape of a limb to provide graduated compression. For example if a bandage is applied with a constant force and a 50% overlap to the lower leg a higher compressive force is provided at the ankle which is the narrower end.
  • limb shape is not standard and in extreme cases the calf circumference may be the same as that of the ankle. In such instances graduated compression could only be achieved by applying the bandage with more force at the ankle which would certainly be far from consistent and accurate.
  • the present invention seeks to avoid the disadvantages of the prior art where the amount of graduated compression provided is determined by, inter alia, the shape of the limb, as currently compression bandages are designed to be applied with a constant force by the provision of markings that reach a particular identifiable configuration when the bandage has been stretched to a desired degree.
  • the present invention provides a compression bandage comprising a longitudinal, substantially elasticated strip of material having first and second ends and provided with a guideline extending from said first end to said second end, characterised in that the general disposition of the guideline is non-parallel with respect to at least one of the edges of the strip.
  • Substantially elasticated materials may comprise elastic and non-elastic filaments and include any materials well known to those skilled in the art of making compression bandages.
  • the compression bandage of the invention is constructed such said bandage is applied with constant extension to a uniform cylinder said first end is adapted to give a first compression and said second end is adapted to give a second, lower compression such that the ratio of pressure exerted upon the cylinder by said second end to the pressure exerted by said first end is less than 1.
  • tapered bandages comprising a narrow first end and a wider second end where the narrow first end is applied to the end of the limb where a higher pressure exertion is required, for example the ankle and thus the wider second end is applied to the end of the limb such as the calf where a lower pressure exertion is required.
  • a compression bandage capable of providing a graduated compression to a limb wherein the bandage is tapered.
  • the degree of tapering is 50% from the wider second end to the narrow first end.
  • the degree of tapering is 30% from the wider second end to the narrow first end.
  • the guide line of such tapered bandages be disposed along the central line of the strip such that it is equi-distant from both edges at any given point but not parallel to either edge.
  • the guideline may be disposed such that it is parallel to only edge of the strip forming the bandage.
  • Another means for achieving a similar effect would be to provide a diagonal guideline along a compression bandage where the compression bandage has a constant width.
  • the guideline is present to achieve the desired amount of overlap. To achieve a higher pressure exertion more overlap is required. To achieve an even, graduated compression the overlap should be at least 50%.
  • the edges of the strip are parallel with respect to each other, the guideline is not parallel to either edge
  • a compression bandage as hereinbefore described wherein the bandage is of a constant width and is provided with a diagonal guidelines such that disposition of the diagonal guideline should provides at least a 50% overlap on application.
  • the guideline may be straight, curved lines or may be stepped or staggered line.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un bandage compressif qui comprend une bande de matériau élastique, longitudinale, comportant des première et seconde extrémités et pourvue d'une ligne de guidage s'étendant de la première à la seconde extrémité. La caractéristique de cette bande est que la ligne de guidage n'est pas parallèle à au moins un de ses bords. La largeur de la première extrémité peut être plus étroite que celle de la seconde extrémité, ou bien la bande peut avoir des côtés parallèles à la ligne de guidage qui s'étend généralement en diagonale sur sa longueur.
