Bandages /Dressings
8/15/2008
A bandage is a piece of
material used either to support a medical device such as a dressing or splint,
or on its own to provide support to the body. Bandages are available in a wide
range of types, from generic cloth strips, to specialised shaped bandages
designed for a specific limb or part of the body, although bandages can often be
improvised as the situation demands, using clothing, blankets or other
material. In common speech, the word "bandage" is often used to mean a
dressing, which is used directly on a wound, whereas a bandage is technically
only used to support a dressing, and not directly on a wound.
