Activa Hosiery Kit

Activa Hosiery Kit offers an alternative treatment to bulky bandages for preventing and treating leg ulcers and lymphoedema that allows you to wear normal footwear. The kit is a combination of two stockings worn on top of each other - a 10mmHg liner underneath a below knee, open toed British Standard Class 3 (25-35mmHg) stocking. Suitable post healing for patients with a history of leg ulcer reoccurence, they can be used for:
  • Treatment of venous leg ulcers
  • Compression of limbs with venous disorders
  • Prevention of recurrence of venous leg ulcers
  • Management of severe varicose veins
Activa Hosiery Kit is available in 2 colours - sand with a white liner and black with a sand liner.

Cautions

  • For large or irregular shaped limbs, or where there is heavy exudate, it may be more appropriate to use inelastic cohesive compression bandages
  • Padding and bandages are recommended for patients with very small limbs or with bony prominences
  • Abnormal ABPI( <0.8, > 1.3) , unless after specialist referral and under strict supervision and regular follow up
  • Diabetic or rheumatoid arthritis patients - unless after specialist referral and under strict supervision
Contraindications:
  • Significant arterial disease (ischemia) according to vascular assessment.
  • Congestive heart failure, as compression could lead to cardiac overload.
  • Acute deep vein thrombosis.
  • Sensory disorders of the limb i.e. peripheral neuropathy.
  • Known sensitivity to the fabric of the stockings.
