UrgoK2 - Urgo Medical Healthcare Professionals

FEATURES

UrgoK2^® is a two-layer compression bandage system, benefiting from the PresSure system
- Layer 1- KTECH: short-stretch bandage, providing compression, protection, and absorbency
- Layer 2 – KPRESS: cohesive long-stretch bandage, providing the additional compression necessary to achieve the therapeutic pressure and securing the bandages in place.
Efficacy and compliance thanks to the unique PresSure system technology
Accurate pressure of 40mmHg achieved from the first application
Pressure and position maintained for up to 7 days¹
High level of patient comfort day and night¹

INDICATIONS

Treatment of venous leg ulcers
Reduction of associated chronic venous oedema (patients with an ABPI >0.8)
Treatment of lymphoedema

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Arterial conditions (aterial of predominantly arterial ulcers; known or suspected arterial disease).
Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) < 0.8.
Patients suffering form diabetic microangiopathy, ischaemic phlebitis, septic thrombosis.
Ulceration due to infection.
Allergy to any of the components

PRECAUTIONS

Check that the ABPI > 0.8 using Doppler ultrasound before prescribing the bandage system.
In the event of diabetes, heart failure or advanced microvascular disease, use the compression system with close medical monitoring and after appropriate treatment.
In case of peri-ulcer infectious dermatosis, treat infection before starting a treatment with the compression system.
In case of an ulcer from rare origin (vasculitis, haemopathy, pyoderma, gangrenosum,…) the compression system should only be used following specialist referral.
The efficacy of UrgoK2 (or UrgoK2 Lite) has been tested and validated for the application of KTECH (or KTECH LITE) and KPRESS together.
The PresSure System has been designed to aid application of the bandages; it is important to follow the instructions carefully to achieve the recommended therapeutic pressure.
If any difficulty arises, consult your doctor or clinician immediately.
