WoundExpress
Simple to use device to assist in healing of venous and mixed leg ulcers
WoundExpress is an innovative and simple to use adjunctive therapy for lower limb wounds which can improve healing rates, reduce pain and release time to care
Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) to increase blood flowWoundExpress uses Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) to increase blood flow around the leg ulcer, as an adjunt to standard treatment
Provides therapy away from the wound
The garment can be easily applied on the thigh of the ulcerated limb, providing therapy away from the wound site
Ideal for home use
Used for 2 hours per day at home by the patient, without need for nurse support
Patented timing cycle
WoundExpress has a patented timing cycle that auguments venous and arterial blood flow. By inflating the garment in this special sequence, venous blood flow is increased, even in the presence of venous insufficiency, since reflux is prevented.
This effect reduces the venous and interstitial pressure and increases the pressure gradient across the arterialvenous pathway, distal to the garment. The result is the removal of high levels of accumulated carbon dioxide and metabolic waste products from the wound site.
The arterial inflow to the leg subsequently increases and encourages the flow of nutrient and oxygen rich blood into the affected region of the wound, promoting enhanced wound healing performance.
Three garment sizes available
The single-patient-use garment with specially designed three chambers is available in three different size to fit all patients
