Different types of bandages were tested mechanically and clinically. Four elastic and three elastic adhesive bandages were mechanically tested. The former proved better. Seven different ankle bandages and three bandages were tested in a simulated clinical situation, measuring the pressure which developed while walking for 15, 50 and 100 mn, and immediately after application of the bandage.
