Ideal Compression Therapy for Patients

of all Sizes, Shapes and Lifestyles

3M™ Coban™ 2 Layer Compression System

Therapeutic Compression Designed

for Everyday Comfort

Coban™ 2 Layer Compression System, with the purple packaging, provides high compression (35-40mmHg) and is ideal for treating the majority of patients with ABPI greater than or equal to 0.8.

In a randomized, controlled trial comparing slippage, health related quality of life (HRQoL), patient preference to ProforeTM, CobanTM 2 Layer Compression System provided significantly less slippage, and was preferred by 72% of patients.¹

3M™ Coban™ 2 Layer Lite Compression System

Designed for Patients Less Tolerant

of Compression

Coban™ 2 Layer Lite Compression System, with the green packaging, provides the same working dynamics as the original, with a 25% reduced resting pressure, making it a safe, comfortable and effective option for patients less tolerant of compression therapy,⁸ including:

• those who have mixed etiology with an ABPI greater than or equal to 0.5

• are new to compression, or where tolerance is not known

• are frail or less mobile

Designed with Clinicians in Mind

• Designed to reduce application variability for consistent compression every time ⁹

• Application is quick and easy to teach and learn ⁹

• Conformable to accommodate difficult shapes and sizes ¹⁰

• Materials are safe and well tolerated ¹⁰

• Easier, faster and less messy to apply than zinc paste bandages ²

3M™ Self Adherent Wraps

Designed to adhere to itself, not skin.

Comfortable and versatile hold.

Give patients the protection they deserve with Coban Wraps. Unlike tape and some other wraps, Coban Wraps adhere to themselves without adhesive or clips. They’re also available in individually packaged single-use rolls to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination.*

*Individually packaged, single-use rolls help prevent wrap from being exposed to environmental contaminants, minimize contact with surfaces and equipment, and minimize exposure to healthcare worker hands.
