The McKesson 2-Layer Compression Bandage System is a reliable solution for managing venous leg ulcers and related conditions. Designed with simplicity and effectiveness in mind, this compression system simultaneously absorbs, protects, and provides therapeutic compression for up to seven days when applied as directed. Visual diamond indicators on the cohesive bandage ensure accurate application, while the system's short-stretch properties yield high working pressure and low resting pressure, making it ideal for mobile patients. Both layers are air-permeable and tearable by hand, providing ease of use without the need for scissors.
