Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and the safety of the new compression system URGO BD001 in the management of venous or mixed predominantly venous leg ulcers. The therapeutic efficacy will be the reduction in wound surface area during a six weeks study treatment period.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Venous Leg Ulcer Device: Compression bandage Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

The compression bandage URGO BD001 is indicated for the management of venous leg ulcers with ABPI (Ankle Brachial Pressure Index) ≥ 0.8, venous oedema and lymphedema justifying strong compression.

The pressure applied with the compression system URGO BD001 help to improve venous return and to reduce venous oedema. The expected clinical benefits from the compression system URGO BD001 in patient with a VLU are to increase healing rate and time to healing, and to improve patient quality of life.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Relative reduction in wound surface area (percent) [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]
    Evolution between D0 and the 6 weeks treatment period with the URGO BD001 compression system: Relative reduction in wound surface area (%) = [(SW6 - SD0)/SD0] × 100 SD0: Wound surface area at D0 SW6: Wound surface area at Week 6


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete ulcer closure: [ Time Frame: 6 weeks or last assessment ]
    The percent (%) of patients with complete ulcer closure (100% re-epithelialization) after 6 weeks or at the latest treatment period

  2. Venous oedema [ Time Frame: 6 weeks or last assessment ]

    Oedema reduction from baseline (D0) and last assessment by measuring the limb circumference (in cm), using a tape:

    • Ankle circumference at the reference point B (smallest perimeter of the leg, 3 cm above medial malleolus,
    • Calf circumference at the reference point C (maximum perimeter of the calf).

  3. Patient quality of Life (EuroQoL 5D-5L) [ Time Frame: 6 weeks or last assessment ]
    EuroQoL 5D-5L between baseline and at last visit. The questionnaire essentially consists of a descriptive system including 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression, and a visual analogue scale (EQ VAS) from "the worst health you can imagine" (0) to "the best health you can imagine" (100).

  4. Evolution of the periwound skin [ Time Frame: 6 weeks or last assessment ]

    Evolution of the peri-wound skin at each visit according to the following parameters:

    • Healthy
    • Altered: Erythematous and/or squamous (irritated dermatitis/eczema), maceration, other

  5. Safety analysis [ Time Frame: 6 weeks or last assessment ]
    Nature and number of adverse event related to the use of the testing compression system (serious/ non-serious)
