Summary

This is a study to compare the healing process of venous stasis ulcers when the Flexitouch® system is added to the standard treatment of venous ulcers. We hypothesize that adding the Flexitouch® system to standard venous ulcer treatment will result in

1. greater complete healing
2. greater percentage reduction in ulcer area
3. reduced time to complete healing, as compared to the use of standard treatment alone
4. a greater reduction in affected leg volume as compared to standard treatment alone.
