The figure-eight bandage is used for dressings of the ankle, as well as for supporting a sprain. While keeping the foot at a right angle, start a 3-inch bandage around the instep for several turns to anchor it. Carry the bandage upward over the instep and around behind the ankle, forward, and again across the instep and down under the arch, thus completing one figure-eight. Continue the figure-eight turns, overlapping one-third to one-half the width of the bandage and with an occasional turn around the ankle, until the compress is secured or until adequate support is obtained.

-Un vendaje en forma de ocho se utiliza para apósitos del tobillo y para soportar un esguince. Mientras se mantiene el pie a un ángulo recto, empiece a envolver con un vendaje de 7,5 cm alrededor del empeine durante varias vueltas para anclarlo. Lleve la venda hacia arriba sobre el empeine y rodee por detrás del tobillo, hacia adelante, y de nuevo por el empeine y por debajo del arco, completando así una forma de ocho. Continúe las vueltas de figura de ocho, sobreponiendo un tercio o la mitad de la anchura de la venda y con un giro ocasional alrededor del tobillo, hasta que la compresa esté asegurada o hasta que se obtenga un soporte adecuado.
