Abstract
This report describes the results of a programme of tests carried out on a new high-compression bandage, with two application aids designed to produce specific pressures on normal-size and oedematous limbs. The product was tested to examine its performance in relation to the specified criteria of a Type 3c compression bandage and other pre-defined features. The results show that, with the use of both application aids, the bandage can provide the target pressure of 40 mmHg +/- 10% on ankles ranging from 21-26 cm and 27-33 cm in circumference. Ankles with circumferences between 26 and 27 cm will fall marginally outside the design criteria (40 +/- 6 mmHg).
