Abstract
Compression is the best therapy in the treatment of venous ulcers. The intensity of the bandage compression essentially depends on four factors: the physical structure and elastomeric properties of the bandage, the shape of the limb the bandage is applied to, the ability and experience of the doctor or nurse who applies it and the ability of the patient to deambulate [1, 2]. The development of construction technologies can help reduce the variability of inter- and intra-bandage tension: one of the most promising possibilities is the manufacturing of a vari-stretch elastomer, capable of exerting a relatively constant pressure regardless of limited variations in extension.
