Effective compression therapy for the treatment of leg ulcer for up to 24 hours a day

Compression therapy is an important part of the treatment for venous leg ulcers. Guidelines recommend the use of ulcer stocking systems in new, small wounds with little to no exudate. The mediven ulcer kit provides continuous, effective compression around the clock and is easy to put on due to its two components. (1)

The white liner stocking mediven ulcer will not only help to keep wound dressings in place, with 20 mmHg compression pressure it can be worn for up to 24 hours and offers therapeutically effective therapy even at night.(2, 3) Its soft material with antibacterial effect ensures a comfort when wearing and helps the donning process of the outer stocking - it simply glides over the liner stocking.(4)

During the day, when the wearer is most active, the outer stocking mediven ulcer plus is worn on top of the mediven ulcer liner increases the compression on the leg to the recommended 40mmHg.(5)

The mediven ulcer kit is supplied with 2 ulcer liners (20mmHg) and 1 mediven ulcer plus (20mmHg) The caramel-coloured and opaque outer stocking also offers a refined appearance.
