Frequently asked questions
Is the 40 mmHg compression level consistent?
Yes. The URGOK2 system is specifically engineered to provide a reliable, consistent 40 mmHg of compression to support the effective healing of venous leg ulcers.
Does this system make applying the bandage easier?
Absolutely. It features an innovative built-in pressure indicator system designed to help ensure you achieve the correct and consistent level of compression every time you apply it.
How long can I wear this bandage system?
The system is designed for extended wear, maintaining its required therapeutic pressure levels for up to 7 days, which reduces the frequency of dressing changes.
What is the function of the two different layers?
The system uses a specialized hybrid design to balance comfort and efficacy:
- Layer 1 (KTECH): A white short-stretch bandage providing protection and exudate absorbency.
- Layer 2 (KPRESS): A cohesive long-stretch bandage that adds supplemental compression and secures the entire system in place.
Is the material comfortable for long-term use?
Yes. The system uses a blend of viscose, polyester, polyamide, elastane, and acrylic. This combination is engineered to balance absorbency, skin protection, and cohesive compression for maximum patient comfort.
Will this size fit my leg?
This version is the Regular size, which has a 4-inch width and is designed for a limb circumference ranging from 7-1/8 to 9-3/4 inches.
Does the bandage require clips or tape?
No. The system utilizes a self-adherent closure, which means the KPRESS outer layer adheres to itself to keep the dressing securely in place without the need for additional clips or adhesive tape.
Is this product suitable for managing wound exudate?
Yes. The KTECH layer is specifically designed with a wadding of viscose and polyester to provide excellent exudate absorbency, ensuring the wound area stays protected.
Can this be used by patients at home?
While it is a professional-grade solution commonly used in clinical environments, the built-in pressure indicator is specifically designed to facilitate accurate application, making it a reliable choice for consistent therapeutic care.
What is the primary benefit of the KTECH layer?
The KTECH layer is the foundation of the system. Its short-stretch properties are vital for:
- Providing necessary therapeutic compression.
- Offering a protective cushion for the skin.
- Managing wound moisture through effective exudate absorbency.
