Background Strong compression treatment is an evidence-based first-line treatment that helps reduce the healing time of venous leg ulcers. VenUS 6 is a three-arm RCT conducted in the UK that aimed to compare 4-layer bandages and 2-layer hosiery with compression wraps and 2-layer bandages. The study found that compression wraps are unlikely to reduce time to venous leg ulcer healing compared to the other treatments evaluate, although there was some uncertainty with this estimate.
