Abstract: Compression bandage for use as the only bandage in a single-bandage system for compression therapy, comprising an elastic compression layer and an elastic comfort layer, of which at least 50% is permanently attached to the compression layer. The compression bandage has a full-stretch elongation (FSE) of between 25% and 60% beyond its unstretched length. Full-stretch elongation is defined as the elongation at which the second derivative (130) of a curve (110) showing tensioning force over longitudinal elongation has its global maximum (140).

Abstract: Movement restraining device (1) for partially immobilizing a body joint (10). The device comprises stopper elements (50, 60) having an abutment surface (100) and an abutting surface (70). One stopper element is pivotable, relative to the other stopper element. The device further has skin attachment means (90, 120) for attaching the stopper elements to skin. The abutment surfaces are arranged or shaped such that, in an abutting pivot position, they prevent pivoting in a first pivot direction (150), while allowing pivoting in a second pivot direction (160), opposite to the first pivot direction.
