The Multi-component compression bandages that provides continuous, consistent and comfortable compression
UrgoKTwo combines the benefits of a soft padded short-stretch bandage and a cohesive long-stretch bandage to achieve the therapeutic pressure of ~40mmHg (or ~20mmHg for UrgoKTwo Reduced) at the ankle, for venous leg ulcers, venous oedema and lymphoedema, returning patients to healing1.
At Urgo Medical, we have 3 principles for safe and effective compression – The 3C’s
Proven comfort for patients. 95% of patients found UrgoKTwo comfortable during the day. 92% of patients found UrgoKTwo comfortable at night.4
