[QUOTE="Pete E, post: 557465, member: 18110"] Since my initial post I have done a little refresher research and found this: [url]https://biomedicalsciences.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/2106393/2.1-Snakebite_firstaid_ANG_AVRU.pdf[/url] If you read through to where it mentions pressures it talks about applying a bandage at around 55mmHg for leg bites and 40mmHg for bites to the arm or hand. What I get from that is that is to use the brown rectangles on the Setopress bandage for both arms and legs and perhaps over stretch them a bit if dealing with a bite to the leg?? [/QUOTE]
