Compression Bandages and Bandage Wraps
Compression bandages and wraps are designed to be in direct contact with a wound to promote healing while protecting the affected area from bacteria and further irritation. These bandage styles can be in stretch bandage wrap rolls and are also available as soft pads that can be adherent or non-adherent. Compression bandage wraps may also be used to provide compression therapy for individuals with lymphedema or other venous disorders.

Compression Wrap Styles
Many bandages are made with latex, but modern advances in technology now allow for many different latex-free compression bandage options, such as Medline’s Threeflex Bandage System. Compression bandages are different from compression dressings: bandages are often strips of stretchable material that are used to secure a dressing, a splint, or another medical device. Some compression bandages are impregnated with healing ointments, such as Smith & Nephew’s Viscopaste™ PB7 Zinc Paste Bandage, to further promote wound care, decrease swelling, and soothe skin. Compression dressings can also include solutions for debridement or infection control. Diabetic patients can benefit from these types of dressings.
Compression Bandage Wrap Fits
When using compression wraps, it is important to ensure the right fit. A bandage wrap shouldn’t be too snug or too loose. Compression wraps that are applied too tightly can cut off blood circulation, which will adversely affect healing. If indicated by a medical professional, loosen the compression bandages before bedtime.
