FRILAST fixing bandage with non-fraying edges

A reliable aid for securing bandages and medicated dressings. Its main advantage is its high elasticity, which makes it easy to bandage the most difficult areas of the body (knees and elbows).

What is a bandage used for? Bandages have long ceased to be a simple dressing applied directly to a wound. Today, bandages are used only to secure medicated dressings and dressings to the body.

Global medicine has long since abandoned gauze bandages, preferring lightweight and easy-to-use fixation bandages. Fixation bandages are a direct alternative to gauze bandages and are a product of modern technology:

  • When securing, there are no awkward knots required for gauze bandages; simply tuck the end inside the bandage. The bandage turns do not shift relative to each other.
  • Due to its high stretchability, one roll is sufficient for a single dressing of a large surface. The following guidelines apply to the different widths: 4 cm is suitable for wrapping fingers, 6 cm or 8 cm for limbs, and 10 cm and 12 cm for the torso and other body parts.
  • Another important difference from gauze bandages is that a fixing bandage does not loosen or twist around the limb when worn. This is especially important when a sterile medicated dressing is first placed on the wound and then secured with a bandage. When bandaging the lower extremities, a fixing bandage does not slip downwards because it has a slight elasticity. There is no need to twist the bandage when applying each turn, whereas a gauze bandage must be twisted periodically to ensure proper adhesion. A gauze bandage leaves many small threads on clothing when worn, while a fixing bandage does not, and the bandaged surface looks neat.

Care for bedridden patients includes a whole range of measures aimed at maintaining the comfortable condition of people who do not have the ability to self-service. For some patients, bed rest is a temporary process that ends with a cure after a certain period. But there are people who have been bedridden for years, and taking care of them requires a lot of strength and patience from the caregivers.

Basic rules for the care of bedridden patients

The most important thing in the care of bedridden patients is compliance with hygiene rules. Hygienic procedures must be carried out in a timely and mandatory manner. Due to the fact that a person is immobilized, stagnant processes begin to occur in his body, which concern both internal organs and skin tissues.

Preparing care products

In order to provide full-fledged hygienic care, it is necessary to prepare in advance all the necessary devices, the list of which includes:

  • absorbent disposable sheets;
  • wet wipes;
  • cotton pads and sticks;
  • moisturizing, regenerating and analgesic creams and lotions;
  • fixing bandages and plasters;
  • paper napkins and towels;
  • dry shampoo;
    • vinyl gloves for hands, as well as other means that will be required in the process of caring for bedridden patients.

Bedsores are warned

The most frequent and quite dangerous problem that occurs with constant bed rest is bedsores. Bedsores initially form on the skin, and then, in the absence of care, affect muscle and bone tissues. Bedsore goes through several stages, and at the initial stage, the further process can be prevented by providing high-quality care:

  • during the day, the patient must be turned over regularly to restore blood circulation in stagnant areas;
  • those places that are most susceptible to the formation of bedsores need to be treated with special regenerating agents;
  • if possible, the patient can perform physical therapy exercises to improve the processes of tissue trophism;
  • the caregiver should regularly give the patient a body massage.

Inflating balloons

One of the most serious problems that often occur in bedridden patients is congestion in the bronchopulmonary system, which almost always leads to pneumonia. To avoid inflammatory processes in the lungs, it is necessary to perform a simple procedure: regularly inflate rubber balls. It is also advisable to study simple tasks from the cycle of breathing exercises. It perfectly helps to develop a light exercise with a cocktail tube. The intensity of performance in this case is well traced when the patient exhales air through a tube into a glass of water.
