The Sterogrip elasticated tubular bandage provides compression support for ankles, knees, thighs, wrists, and elbows. Requested by the NHS for joint support applications, the tubular pull-on format provides even compression without the wrapping technique required by conventional bandages.
Compliance Summary: Sterogrip tubular bandages are medical devices requested by the NHS for joint support. The elasticated construction provides even compression that supports the joint during recovery from sprains and strains.
How does tubular bandage differ from conventional bandaging?
Tubular bandage slides over the joint like a sleeve, providing even compression across the entire area. Conventional bandages require a spiral wrapping technique that can result in uneven pressure. The tubular format is faster to apply and provides more consistent support.
What size do I need?
Sterogrip is available in multiple sizes based on the body area. Measure the circumference of the joint at its widest point and match to the sizing chart. The bandage should provide firm support without restricting circulation.
