Product Description
3M™ Coban™ Self‑Adherent Wrap is a cohesive elastic wrap constructed from a nonwoven material and elastic fibers. The cohesive properties allow the wrap
to stick to itself but not to other materials or skin. The product is supplied non‑sterile.
Indications for Use
Coban self‑adherent wrap is intended for use as an elastic wrap to provide compression or support, or to secure dressings or devices. This product is not
designed, sold or intended for use except as indicated.
Contraindications
None known.
Warnings
Coban self‑adherent wrap will not slip or loosen after application. DO NOT wrap too tightly to avoid impairing circulation and causing serious injury. The risk of 1.
impaired circulation is higher for children.
Monitor area frequently (no less than every 24 hours) for signs of swelling, discoloration, pain, numbness, tingling, or other changes in sensation. If these 2.
symptoms occur, remove wrap immediately and contact your health care provider.
DO NOT place Coban self‑adherent wrap in direct contact with an open wound because it may lead to infection.3.
Caution
This product contains natural rubber latex which may cause allergic reactions.
Precautions
When used as a component in a compression wrap system, it is important to ensure adequate arterial blood flow to avoid injury secondary to decreased 1.
circulation. Coban self‑adherent wrap should be used as a component of a compression wrap system only under the supervision of a wound care specialist.
Do Not Reuse. Reuse may result in compromising product integrity and / or lead to device failure.2.
Directions for Use
Unwind approximately 12 inches of Coban self‑adherent wrap from the roll and allow the wrap to relax.1.
Without stretching, apply one full wrap and overlap. Press overlapped area lightly to keep the end in place. See Figure 1.2.
Proceed with wrapping, applying tension to the wrap only to obtain desired compression. Always unwind more Coban 3.
self‑adherent wrap from the roll before making a wrap so that the product is not applied with too much tension. See Figure 2.
When application is complete, cut off excess Coban self‑adherent wrap. Secure the end of the application by gently pressing.4.
