Carolon Multi-Layer Compression System
Carolon Multi-Layer compression provides a high quality compression system now containing a unique Cupron® Copper Yarn technology in the understockings, a fabric designed to reduce bacteria and fungi. Copper oxide remains effective for the life of the garment and is unaffected by washing and drying.
Carolon multi layer compression stockings are available in a large range of sizes including extra large with maximum ankle circumference of 35.5cm and maximum calf circumference of 66cm reducing the requirement for costly made to measure hosiery.
Recently the VenUS IV trial highlighted that 2 layer hosiery systems are as effective for healing venous leg ulcers as 4 layer bandage systems, with fewer reoccurrence rates and is a more cost effective treatment option, (£302.4 less per participant per year).[1]
