Burn Garments

[threecol_one] [/threecol_one] [threecol_two_last] Compression Management Services is a leader in offering compression garments, also know as pressure garments, for individuals that have suffered severe burn injuries. In the delicate case of a burn injury, the collagen in the skin grows at ten times the normal rate. This accelerated rate of growth can lead to raised skin, redness, hypertrophic scarring and burn contracture. Research shows that low grade compression through the use of a compression garment for 12-18 months can aid dramatically in the prevention of such scarring. Effective use of compression within weeks of the initial burn will also eliminate the likelihood of post-burn surgeries such as contracture release and possibly reduce the need for additional skin grafting. Burn garment fabric is softer than that used in vascular garments. They have two way stretch, with a low resting pressure, making them safe to sleep in. Burn garments are custom-made, designed to provide precise pressure, and are measured and fit for each individual patient to achieve maximum effectiveness. They are individually engineered, designed and constructed to satisfy the needs of each patient.

Unlike a vascular garment, burn garments are manufactured with a soft fabric that provides uniform (even) pressure that is safe to wear 23 1/2 hours out of the day. The fabric of a burn garment also aids in the prevention of skin breakdown. A vascular garment provides precise gradient pressure to increase blood flow and decrease swelling. The higher gradient compression in vascular garments, in most cases, reaches standing capillary pressure and is not recommended to sleep in.  [/threecol_two_last]
