In this non-comparative clinical evaluation, 36 subjects with venous leg ulcers, 85% of which were indolent or deteriorating, were treated with Urgotul lipidocolloid wound dressing and the K-Four multilayer compression bandaging system for 12 weeks or to healing--whichever occurred first. Results show that Urgotul was an ideal dressing in combination with K-Four, being easy to apply (98.7%) and remove (98.1%), and largely pain-free (95.6%) and non-adherent (99.7%). In a patient group of "hard-to-heal" ulcers, 50% of the ulcers healed within the treatment period. Ulcers not healed after 12 weeks achieved almost 50% area reduction on average. The treatment combination proved safe, with only one of seven adverse events reported being probably related to the products used. This study supports the use of a combination of Urgotul dressing and K-Four compression to provide a "matched" treatment for venous leg ulcers.
在这项非对照临床评估中，36例患有腿部静脉溃疡的受试者（其中85%为愈合缓慢或病情恶化者）接受了优格涂尔脂质胶体伤口敷料和K - Four多层加压绷带系统治疗，为期12周或直至伤口愈合——以先发生者为准。结果显示，优格涂尔与K - Four联合使用时是一种理想的敷料，易于应用（98.7%）和去除（98.1%），且基本无痛（95.6%）和无粘连（99.7%）。在一组“难愈合”溃疡患者中，50%的溃疡在治疗期内愈合。12周后未愈合的溃疡平均面积缩小了近50%。该治疗组合被证明是安全的，报告的7例不良事件中只有1例可能与所使用的产品有关。本研究支持使用优格涂尔敷料和K - Four加压联合治疗，为腿部静脉溃疡提供“匹配”的治疗方案。
