Clinical and Health Economic Benefits Associated with a Two-Layer Bandage Featuring the unique Dual Compression System (DCS)
The combined use of short-stretch and long-stretch bandages in one kit, with the availability of visual indicators to guide proper application, is unique in the management of venous disease/ulcers. Known as the Dual Compression System (DCS), the ability of this DCS bandage system to treat venous ulcers as well as adjacent conditions is supported by much published evidence, both of real life as well as of the randomized controlled variety. The clinical benefits and the user friendliness of the product in real life, compared to other multi-component systems, translate to significant health economic benefits. Our two distinguished speakers will present the clinical evidence, illustrative and representative clinical cases, and present a health economic analysis of the benefits associated with the DCS system as analyzed from recent studies. An attendee should be able to learn the following:
- The three C's data associated with the product technology (consistency, continuity, and comfort) in managing venous disease/ulcers
- The RCT data associated with the product compared to other multi-component bandage systems in managing venous disease/ulcers
- Real-life data associated with the use of the product on a large cohort of patients with demographic and comorbidity variability, including diabetes
- Cases that are illustrative of the venous disease/ulcer management, including with common comorbidities, and variabilities
- A study that examines the time and labor saved in using the DCS as opposed to another multi-component bandage, and the health economic implications thereof
