COMPRESSION WITH COMPETITIVE EDGE

JOBST^® UlcerCARETM is easy to don
Usually the higher the compression level, the harder a stocking system is to don, and the compliance is lower. But the compression level is a key factor for successful treatment and may not be reduced. JOBST^® UlcerCARE^TM combines low donning values with the necessary compression.
Ease of don = patient compliance

JOBST^® UlcerCARETM provides superior moisture management all day long
A fast moisture absorbency gives the patient more comfort for long wearing. Both the liner and stocking of JOBST^® UlcerCARE^TM proved to have very fast moisture absorbent capabilities.
Moisture transport = patient comfort

JOBST^® UlcerCARETM provides the necessary stiffness
The stiffness of a compression system has been shown to correlate with an improvement of venous lling time among patients with chronic venous insuf ciency. Only a static stiffness index of over ten and more is able to lead to an improvement in ulcer healing outcomes.
Stiffness index > 10 = effective compression

JOBST^® UlcerCARETM meets all demands on a compression system for effective management of a venous leg ulcer, while improving patient quality of life.
