Smith & Nephew Profore LF 4-Layer Compression Bandage System

Profore LF is a latex-free formulation, multi-layer compression bandage system. It has been developed in response to a growing concern from customers about the potential danger of latex allergy / hypersensitivity. Profore LF provides the same effective compression and sustained results as the standard Profore multi-layer compression bandage system, but its latex-free formulation means it can be used those with an allergy to latex. Profore LF is best used on ankle circumferences greater than 7¼ inches (padded). Each Profore LF system pack contains: Profore LF wound contact layer; Profore LF #1 padding bandage; Profore LF #2 light conformable dressing; Profore LF #3 light compression bandage; and Profore LF #4 flexible cohesive bandage.

• Effective compression: Proven effective in both hospital and community treatment studies, the Profore LF system is designed to deliver effective pressure
• Graduated compression: Profore LF provides higher pressure at the ankle, with decreasing pressure exhibited at the calf
• Sustained compression: Even a full week after application, Profore LF maintains effective levels of compression
• Safety: Profore LF pads bony prominences for protection and through the use of 2 compression layers, compression is built up gradually
• Extended weartime: Profore LF has sufficient absorptive capacity to manage exudate for up to a full week without the need for reapplication
• Cost-effective: Weekly dressing changes reduce nursing time required for the management of venous leg ulcers
• Convenient: Profore LF system pack contains everything necessary for the application of effective graduated compression therapy
