With over 30 years’ experience in vascular assessment and treatment, Huntleigh, a member of the Arjo family, has strived to provide patients, and the professionals who care for them, innovative solutions that improve outcomes and enhance patient wellbeing. Huntleigh has now revolutionized wound therapy. Wounds are a common clinical challenge where approximately 1% of the western population will suffer from a venous leg ulcer (VLU) during their lifetime.
“Patients suffering from venous leg ulcers have disorders of both venous and lymphatic systems. The astute clinician addresses both disorders. Ignoring the lymphatic component ignores half the problem.” - Dr. Thomas Serena
Introducing WoundExpress™, an innovative adjunctive therapy for lower limb wounds which can improve healing rates and reduce pain. Comprising of a single-patient-use garment and a pump, it uses Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) to increase blood flow around the leg ulcer. Unlike all other VLU compression therapies, the 3 chamber garment is easily applied by the patient to the thigh of the ulcerated limb, away from the wound site, increasing patient comfort and compliance. It is used for only 2 hours per day as an adjunct to standard treatment.
Clinical evidence has shown 93% of ulcers improved within a 16 week period of treatment. 60% of patients with an unhealed wound for over 4 years progressed towards healing. In addition to wound healing, the clinical evidence has shown that WoundExpress™ decreased the pain associated with venous leg wounds in 94% of the patients who used it over an 8 week period of time. Costs of wound care are also reduced due to less wound dressings used and nurse time. Join us now and order your WoundExpress™ to start seeing improved healing and decreased pain in your patients today.
