Urgo Medical Compression — Prevention, Treatment, Maintenance
Urgo Medical is well established in providing clinically proven and effective compression products. Our range of garments and bandages
provide prevention, treatment and maintenance compression solutions across the complete VLU care pathway.
Altiform Made to Measure British Standard stockings provide appropriate compression for post-VLU maintenance, and are suitable for
varicose veins, oedema and anti-natal support. Made in the UK, the range includes knee-high and thigh-length (including lacy hold-ups!)
for patient choice and our 72-hour despatch promise ensures patients benefit from their hosiery quickly.
Altiven Made to Measure garments provide European Class compression suitable for
lymphoedema therapy. There is an extensive range of styles available in each class,
plus low compression to offer gentle support and comfort in palliative care.
KTwo, the No.1 two-component compression system, has two dynamic bandages that
work in harmony, so patients benefit from the synergy of inelastic and elastic bandages
working together. KTwo provides ‘Gold Standard’ compression and has proven efficacy
in VLU wound-healing. A complete range means that KTwo is suitable for toe to knee
or toe to thigh bandaging. KTwo is now indicated for the treatment and management of
lymphoedema.
Altipress 40 is a practical hosiery system for treating venous leg ulcers. The kit consists of
two stockings that are worn on top of each other to deliver the recommended compression for
VLU healing. Altipress Liners are available separately and can be used alone, or
layered to provide reduced compression.
