  • Instructions for Use

Applying VISCOPASTE◊ PB7

This product is ready for use upon removal from the sealed pouch and wrapper.

There are two ways that the bandage can be applied:


Method 1

Beginning at the base of the toes, the bandage should be loosely wrapped around the foot, heel and around the leg in a spiral fashion to just below the knee.  Once applied, the bandage should then be smoothed and molded around the leg.


Method 2

Beginning at the base of the toes, the bandage should be loosely wrapped around the foot and heel and then, whilst wrapping from the ankle, apply a pleat, at the front of the leg.  This should be repeated up the leg until just below the knee.  Compression bandaging may follow.  Once VISCOPASTE◊ PB7 has been applied, the leg should be covered by a bandage or dressing to prevent soiling of clothes and bedcovers.
