Elastic or inelastic compression in patients with leg ulcer and restricted mobility?
In patients with leg ulcer and restricted mobility, compression with elastic material is often preferred based on the concept that it is more effective as it exerts a sustained higher resting pressure while inelastic material is believed to exert a very ...

Chronic venous insufficiency and interest of adjustable compression wrap devices
Adjustable compression wrap devices (ACWD) are a heterogenic group which makes it difficult to match them to individual patient in their best way, we tried to characterize these products by their technical features.

Cost comparison of three kinds of compression therapy in venous ulcer [PDF]
: Evolution and cost of three types of compression therapy (single layer, multilayer and Unna boot) in patients with venous ulceration were compared. The evaluation lasted two months and used photographic records and instrument based on pressure ulcer ...

Relevance of stiffness of compression material on venous hemodynamics and edema
Elastic and inelastic stockings or bandages may provide the same degree of compression pressure in the resting supine position but inelastic material provides much greater compression pressure in the standing or working position.
