Load Relieving Dressing (LRD) |
The DIApedia Load Relieving Dressing System
(Protected by US Patents 6,610,897, 6,720,470, and other patents pending)
Diabetic foot ulcers often fail to heal because the foot continues to experience damaging loads as the patient walks.
The DIApedia Load Relieving Dressing (LRD) System provides pressure relief for a foot ulcer and, at the same time, can deliver healing agents.
Even when the other system components (memory foam footbed and footgear) are not worn, the dressing remains attached to the foot and provides load relief.
The DIApedia LRD is currently (April 2006) in clinical trials at a major medical center in Pennsylvania, USA. |
