Purpose: This experimental study aimed to solve the problem of discomfort and stably fix the bandage. A new self-adhesive bandage was manufactured to reduce the inconveniences associated with the plaster bandage. We compared the associated stability between the plaster bandage and the new self-adhesive bandage.
Methods: The traditional elastic bandage (traditional EB; i.e., plaster bandage) and modified elastic bandage (modified EB; i.e., new self-adhesive bandage) were applied to 30 people each. We measured the time of preparation and attachment for traditional TB and attachment for modified TB. A 4kg cattle bell was fixed to each bandage to compare their respective stability levels.
Results: The speed for the traditional EB was 28.93(±9.28)sec (mean 25.56s) and 6.13(±1.81)sec for the modified EB (mean 5.95sec). The stability values were 1.49(±.77)min for the traditional EB (mean 1.31min) and 26.22(±9.04)min for modified EB (mean 1.31min). The differences in speed and stability were statistically significant.
Conclusion: Compared to the traditional EB, applying the modified EB could solve the attachment inconvenience and provide stable maintenance.
