Carolon Multi-Layer Compression System
Advanced Compression System for the Treatment of Venous Leg Ulcers
The Carolon Multi-Layer Advanced Compression System Consists of Two Stockings: an Under-Stocking and an Over-Stocking.
The Under-stocking
- Allows for 16-18mmHg compression at night for continued compression therapy
- Fits easily over the primary dressing providing moderate compression
- Double-bound fabric, reduces sheer forces on surrounding skin and helps protect the wound
- Flared without compression at toe area for correct fitting and comfort
- Facilitates the application of the over-stocking, no application aid required
The Over-Stocking
- Superior sheer or sock fabric
- 2-way stretch properties which assists application and improves patient comfort
Precise Compression
- The under-stocking is manufactured using 26 different knit patterns to provide precise performance either as a multi stocking system or as a single stocking
- Both layers have been created to work together ensuring controlled, accurate, consistent compression
Choice Of Two Different Compression Levels
- 30-35mmHg for improved patient comfort and concordance
- 35-40mmHg for more severe venous leg disorders
- Available in Black and Beige
The 30-35 mmHg is an option for non-concordant lymphoedema patients
Improved Patient Comfort and Quality of Life
- A 16-18mmHg Under-Stocking and a choice of Over-Stocking means the system is easier to apply and better tolerated
- More comfortable than bulky bandage systems, improving patient independence
- Complete system can be applied without the need for any application aids
Significant Cost Savings
- Stocking system is quickly applied saving valuable nursing time
- Maintains compression for over 60 washings (tested to 90 washings)
- Stockings can be machine-washed and are dryer safe
A Cost Effective Alternative to Made to Measure Hosiery
- Full range of sizes (extending up to an ankle circumference of 35.5cm and calf circumference of 66cm)
- Alternative to very expensive made to measure hosiery for larger patients
- Short and Regular length options
