Venous ulceration is a major burden on the NHS. Current treatment involves bandaging therapy which is replaced on a once or twice weekly basis. The Juxta-CuresTM device offers an alternative solution for the long-term treatment of patients with venous ulceration. This is a removable adjustable device with an inbuilt pressure monitor. The aim of this study is to determine whether the Juxta-Cures™ device provides at least equivalent ulcer healing for patients with venous ulceration compared to bandaging. Secondary outcome measures include whether the Juxta-Cures™ device improves patient compliance and quality of life compared to bandaging, and whether the Juxta-Cures™ device is cost effective compared to bandaging.
