With compression systems, it is important to monitor the patient’s response to therapy. Wrapping too tightly may impair circulation. Monitor the area of application frequently for signs of discoloration, pain, numbness, tingling, or other changes in sensation and swelling. If these symptoms occur, remove Coban 2 Compression System promptly and contact your local health care provider.
How to Use Solventum (Formerly 3M) Coban 2 Layer Lite Compression System
The Inner Comfort Layer – Apply this layer with the foam side against the skin, using just enough tension to conform to the shape of the leg with minimal overlap. This ensures a breathable and thin application that promotes patient comfort and joint articulation.
- Start the application with a circular winding at the base of the toes, beginning at the fifth metatarsal head.
- The second circle of winding should come across the top of the foot so that the middle of the bandage width approximately covers the articulating aspect of the ankle joint.
- Bring the next winding low, around the back of the heel leaving the plantar aspect of the heel uncovered.
- Proceed up to the knee with minimal overlap, using just enough tension to conform to the shape of the leg. Cut off excess material. Give light pressure at the end of the bandage to ensure that is stays in place during application of the compression layer.
The Outer Compression Layer – The compression layer is designed to be applied at full stretch throughout its application.
- Start the application with a circular winding at the base of the toes, beginning at the fifth metatarsal head.
- Complete up to three figures of 8 around the ankle ensuring the entire heel is covered with at least two layers.
- Proceed up the leg with 50% overlap to cover the entire inner comfort layer. Maintain consistent stretch throughout the bandaging process.
- Press lightly on the entire surface of the application to guarantee an optimal comfortability and to ensure that the bandage adheres to itself and to the inner comfort layer.
Removal – The compression system may be removed with bandage scissors or by unwrapping. If using scissors, it is advised to cut on the medial side of the leg and ensure cutting behind the medial malleoli.

How does Solventum (Formerly 3M) Coban 2 Layer Lite Compression System manage the irritated skin condition?

reduce inflammation, moisturize, and protect the skin that are compatible with the Coban 2 Compression System. Solventum (Formerly 3M) recommends the minimal amount of cream or ointment necessary to moisturize the skin.
The Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nurses Society™ Guideline for Management of Wounds in Patients with Lower-Extremity Venous Disease suggests to:
