SummaryPurpose: Textile compression stockings or bandages are limited in comfort; they do not allow uninterrupted wearing. A novel elastic film bandage was evaluated regarding practicability, patient comfort and effect on vein regression. Main endpoint was the frequency of symptomatic inflammatory reactions.Methods: In a comparative pilot study, a ...
