Leukotape Bandage 10X3.75 Ref. 1701

Directions for Use:

1. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before applying the tape.
2. Measure and cut the required length of Leukotape bandage. 3. Round the edges of the cut tape to prevent peeling. 4. Apply the tape firmly but not too tightly, following the contours of the body. 5. For support bandaging, apply the tape with the appropriate tension based on the specific injury and desired level of immobilization. 6. Overlap successive strips of tape by approximately half their width to create a secure and supportive bandage. 7. Avoid applying the tape directly over wounds or broken skin. 8. If using for functional bandaging, ensure proper technique is followed as advised by a healthcare professional for optimal support and movement control.

Recommended Frequency:

The frequency of Leukotape bandage application depends on the specific injury and the purpose of use. For support and immobilization, the bandage can typically be worn for several days. However, it is essential to monitor the skin for any signs of irritation or discomfort. If the bandage becomes loose or soiled, it should be replaced. Consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice on the frequency of application and duration of wear.

Additional Tips:

1. For enhanced adhesion, consider using a pre-wrap or underwrap before applying the Leukotape bandage. 2. Avoid excessive stretching of the tape during application, as this can compromise its supportive properties. 3. If applying the bandage to a hairy area, consider trimming the hair to improve adhesion and prevent discomfort upon removal. 4. Remove the bandage slowly and carefully to avoid skin irritation. If necessary, use a bandage remover to assist with removal. 5. If any skin irritation or allergic reaction occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. 6. Store Leukotape bandage in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
