Flat knit compression stocking system for varicose ulcers.

Juzo Ulcer Pro offers a complete and effective solution for the treatment of venous ulcers, combining 24-hour compression therapy, comfort, hygiene and ease of use.

Safety, hygiene and improved gait: the Juzo Ulcer Pro compression hosiery system was developed in close collaboration with therapists and doctors and simplifies the treatment of varicose ulcers. It consists of two compression stockings, which complement each other for 24-hour compression therapy. The compression of both stockings, worn simultaneously, reaches compression class 3 (34-46mmHg).

Indications:

The Juzo Ulcer Pro should be used as soon as variations in the perimeter of the affected area have subsided over the course of varicose ulcer therapy. Treatment of varicose ulcers, treatment of mixed ulcers, use as a substitute for or in addition to compression bandages after reduction of edema, prevention of varicose ulcer recurrence and reduction of varicose ulcer pain. See the contraindications leaflet*.

Features of the Juzo Ulcer Liner inner sock:

Juzo Ulcer Liner - Hygiene and protection as the basis of treatment!

The high-quality, thin and soft below-the-knee sock in circular knit can be worn day and night on the affected leg. The Juzo Ulcer Liner has a Cl.1 compression pressure and is therefore easier to put on and take off. The below-the-knee sock protects sensitive skin when putting on the outer sock and can be used to securely attach dressings and pads. The colored markings in the heel area make it easier for the patient to position themselves exactly. The toe cap seam is placed on the outside to protect the sensitive skin in the toe area and improve comfort during use.

Features of the Juzo Ulcer Expert outer sock:

Juzo Ulcer Expert - High working pressure for particularly effective therapy!

The flat knit compression sock can be worn all day long over the Juzo Ulcer Liner for increased compression. The flat knit quality is characterized by high pressure in motion at low pressure at rest and develops its effectiveness best in combination with active movement. Flat knitting is especially recommended in cases where edema is present and persistent. With the use of the Juzo Ulcer Expert flat knit and the movement of walking, the muscle pump is activated and the sock promotes an immediate action.

How to use it?

The white Juzo Ulcer Liner stocking is worn during the day and night. After 24 hours, the sock is removed for washing and the other white sock that comes with the kit is put on. The beige Juzo Ulcer Expert stocking is worn over the white stocking only during the day.

Is there another solution if the healthcare professional doesn't want combined class 3 compression during the day, but rather class 2 pressure due to a special condition?

Yes, you can use this Juzo Ulcer Pro ulcer kit in a different way: During the night, you can use only the Juzo Ulcer Liner inner sock (the white sock in this kit) for class 1 night compression, in order to maintain compression during the night to optimize treatment. And during the day, use only the outer sock from the Juzo Ulcer Expert kit with class 2 compression.

If the skin is very fragile, brittle, peeling, reddened or itchy, you can buy the Juzo Liner Silver inner sock separately and place it on the skin (before putting on the flat mesh), as it has antimicrobial properties due to its silver thread.

What are the advantages of using a flat knit outer sock in an ulcer kit?

Flat knit stockings represent a significant advance in the treatment of venous ulcers, offering distinct advantages over circular knit stockings. They allow for a more precise and effective approach to the treatment of venous ulcers, combining controlled compression, personalized comfort and prevention of recurrence.

If not, let's see:

• Effective and controlled compression: High Working Pressure: The flat knit, due to its low elasticity, provides a high working pressure. This means that compression is most effective during physical activity, when the leg muscles are working, which is essential for promoting venous return and reducing edema.
• Low Resting Pressure: Unlike the high working pressure, the flat knit exerts a low resting pressure. This makes the socks more comfortable during rest and at night, reducing the risk of ischemia.
• Personalized Fit and Comfort: Anatomical Fit: The flat knit allows for a more precise fit to the shape of the leg, especially in cases of severe edema or deformities. This is crucial to ensure that compression is applied evenly and effectively.
• Edema Reduction: The controlled compression of the flat mesh is more effective in reducing edema, a key factor in the healing of venous ulcers.

Other Advantages:

• Prevention of Recurrence: Consistent use of flat knit stockings helps prevent the recurrence of venous ulcers by maintaining proper blood circulation and reducing edema.
• Flexibility: Flat knitting allows for the creation of bespoke stockings for patients with irregular leg shapes.

Estimated delivery time: 6 to 8 working days.
