One of the top challenges in treating wounds of the lower extremities, including edema and venus stasis ulcers, is ensuring that the patient embraces the need for life-long care.
That's where the Vive Wear compression system makes a tremendous difference.
Most patients apply the system on their own within the comfort of their own home, reducing the need for doctor's visits and allowing for far less disruption to their lifestyle.
In our studies this made a tremendous difference, allowing patients to change the sock and compression sleeve whenever they wanted to for comfort and hygiene.
The second factor in improving patient compliance is the comfort of the solution. The Vive Wear system, both for compression socks and prosthetic shrinkers, are designed with comfort as a priority. The high-quality fibers we've chosen for softness and water-wicking properties make a huge difference to those that have to wear them day in and day out.
In addition, small details like the terry-cushion built into the prosthetic shrinker are built out of our experience with patients and their complaints with other products currently available.
It only makes sense that results actually prove to have an extremely positive effect on patient compliance. In Vive Wear's case, the healing that patients experience, which then allows for a much-improved quality of life (fewer office visits, more mobility, fewer barriers to going into public). This improvement in quality of life leads to reinforcement of the medical dictate: the compression system must be worn for life for maximum effect.
We have had patients who literally wear the Vive Wear all of the time.
If patient compliance is an issue in your practice, Vive Wear may be an effective solution.
