Fitting & user guide

COMPRESSION CONTROL

Compression is determined by following fitting indicator graduations during application of bandage:

  • Stretch the bandage to 30% (rectangle marking becomes a square).
  • Apply the bandage according to overlapping guide lines:

Biflex 16+  

  • Force 1 line =  50% overlap  (10-15mmHg compression)
  • Force 2 line = 75% overlap  (15-20 mmHg compression)

 

 

USAGE for Biflex Practic

  1. Place the end of the bandage flat against the base of the toes.
  2. Wind round once, passing the bandage under the foot.
  3. Wind round a second time, up towards the ankle. Cover the heel.
  4. Pass the bandage under the foot and return to the ankle.
  5.  Return to the top of the foot and pass the bandage round the ankle.
  6. Wind the bandage up round the calf, evenly spacing the spirals according to the instructions.

The integrated loop at one end and the transfer indicating the winding direction make Biflex® + Pratic easier to fit
NB : when you remove the bandage, roll up starting at the end opposite the loop.
