Study Summary

The researchers hypothesize that utilization of the Flexitouch system will improve the healing rates of (venous stasis ulcers) VSU compared to traditional compression wrapping therapy alone. Primary Objective: The primary study objective is to determine whether the complete healing rate of venous stasis ulcers at 12 weeks is improved by the addition of Flexitouch® System compression therapy to a standard regimen of compression wrapping. Secondary Objectives: * To determine whether the addition of Flexitouch System compression therapy to a standard regimen of compression wrapping increases the percentage reduction in wound surface area. * To determine whether the addition of Flexitouch compression therapy to a standard regimen of compression wrapping increases the percentage reduction in volume of the affected limb. * To determine whether the addition of Flexitouch compression therapy to a standard regimen of compression wrapping decreases the time to healing of the venous stasis ulcer.

Primary Outcome

Number of subjects that experience complete healing of the study venous stasis ulcer during the 12 week treatment period.
