- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new adjustable compression system for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.
- Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new adjustable compression system for the treatment of venous leg ulcers. The new compression system consists of a compression stocking and and adjustable compression sleeve. It will be used over primary dressings to provide compression that is beneficial to the healing of venous leg ulcers.

Group Intervention Description Profore Profore Profore multi-layer compression bandaging system will be applied at the first subject visit and will be worn by the study subject continuously for 7 days, at which time it will be replaced with a new system, or, in the case of a product or non-product reason, replaced before 7 days. It will provide therapeutic compression for edema control to help in the healing of venous leg ulcers 3M™ Coban™ Custom Fit Compression System 3M™ Coban™ Custom Fit Compression System 3M™ Coban™ Custom Fit Compression System will be custom-fitted at first subject visit and will thereafter be applied and removed daily by the study subject. It will be worn throughout the day by the study subject and removed before bedtime. It will provide therapeutic compression for edema control to help in the healing of venous leg ulcers.
