Askina Ideal Bandage

It is hard to conceive of treating venous leg ailments by compression therapy without Puetter’s counter-rotating bandaging technique. It requires two specially strong short-stretch bandages, the so-called Puetter bandages. They are available in a diagnosis-specific double pack of two Puetter bandages and as single bandages in various widths.

• 2 bandages in foil pack
• includes 4 bandage clips

the Puetter bandage’s strong, woven stretch fabric with ca. 90% stretch exerts a very strong compression with high working pressure and low resting pressure. This will also have a therapeutic effect on the deep, sub-fascial vein areas.

The counter-rotational bandaging method combined with the strength of the bandages results in exceptionally durable bandaging that exerts sustained compression.

Since the short-stretch bandages moreover conform easily to changes in leg shape caused by oedemic detumescence, they can be left in place for about three days, except in acute, highly oedemic states.

The Puetter bandage is made of 100% cotton. It is breathable and tolerated by the skin, as well as being washable and sterilizable, with steam, up to 134°C.
