Measure
ActiVAC System+ Compression Therapy
ActiVAC System + Compression therapy group consisting of the application of this device along with compression therapy. ActiVAC System + Compression therapy: The ActiV.A.C. System will be applied in a customary manner per manufacturer's recommendations. Acticoat Flex 7™ will be applied as contact layer on the wound surface. Open cell foam is then applied over the top of the Acticoat Flex 7™. Adherent transparent occlusive material will be applied over the open cell foam. The tubing is then attached after cutting a small aperture through the occlusive material. Negative pressure will be set at 125mmHg on continuous suction. Sponge and canister will be replaced 2 time a week. Compression Therapy Profore™ multi-layered compression bandaging system will be utilized. This includes the application of a contact layer dressing using Acticoat Flex 7™. The compression bandage will be applied per manufacturer's recommendations.
Compression Therapy Only
Standard of Care compression therapy only ActiVAC System + Compression therapy: The ActiV.A.C. System will be applied in a customary manner per manufacturer's recommendations.
