Four-Layer Bandaging: From Concept to Practice

Christine Moffatt, CRICP

Wolfson Institute for Health Sciences, Thames Valley University, London, christine.moffatt{at}tvu.ac.uk

The 4-layer bandage was originally designed to provide sustained leg compression to patients with venous leg ulcers. Since then, the practice of 4-layer bandaging has become widespread in the United Kingdom. Ulcer healing rates vary for a number of reasons. This review, by a member of the original design team, seeks to discuss reasons of varying success and offers advice for its appropriate usage.

Key Words: compression • 4-layer bandaging • venous ulceration
