Profore (1)

Indications

Multi-layer compression bandage system specifically developed for the management of venous leg ulcers and associated conditions. Offers reduced compression from the original Profore kits. It has been specially developed for the management of mixed aetiology leg ulcers where assessment of the patient has identified that there is some degree of arterial impairment, which prevents the use of full compression.

Contraindications

Do not use on patients with an ankle brachial pressure index of less than 0.8 (Profore) or 0.6 (Profore Lite) or on diabetic patients with advanced small vessel disease.
