Venous impulse foot pumps: should graduated compression stockings be used?

open access: yes, 2016
It is not known whether the effect of Foot Pumps (Novamedix, Andover, UK) is enhanced by simultaneous use of graduated compression stockings (by controlling calf compliance) or hindered (by restricting preload).

Scalable Fabrication of Thermally Reconfigurable Ge Metasurfaces Using Stencil Lithography for Mid‐Infrared Molecular Fingerprinting

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Scalable stencil lithography enables resist‐free fabrication of high‐index Ge metasurfaces for mid‐infrared molecular fingerprinting. Reversible thermo‐optic tuning provides post‐fabrication spectral control for precise resonance–vibration mode alignment, enabling enhanced molecular fingerprinting of microplastic particles.

COMPRESSION PROFILE OF SPORT COMPRESSION STOCKINGS IN RUNNERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study was to determine the interface pressure applied using two compressive stockings: medium compression (MC) and strong compression (SC); in three conditions: before, during and after running test.

Venous thromboembolism: use of graduated compression stockings

open access: yes, 2015
This article aims to review the use of graduated compression stockings in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE). This is particularly important owing to the increasing number of people who die from hospital-acquired VTE and deep vein thrombosis.

Self‐Healing Hydrogel‐Enabled Modular Assembly of Bilayered Skin Construct for Hair Follicle Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐healing assembly of two cell‐laden hydrogel layers creates a biomimetic skin construct that restores both dermal and epidermal functions, resulting in accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle regeneration in a full‐thickness skin wound model. ABSTRACT Alopecia remains a pervasive clinical challenge, largely owing to the limited ability

Management of Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers in Low Socioeconomic Settings Without Access to Four-Layer Compression Systems: A Practical Approach in Pakistan

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Medicine and Dentistry
Chronic venous leg ulcers (CVLUs) are a significant cause of morbidity, particularly in low-resource settings. Although multilayer compression therapy is the standard treatment, its use is limited by cost, availability, and the need for trained ...

Synergistic Effect of Elastic Stockings to Maintain Volume Losses after Mechanical Lymphatic Therapy

open access: yesDermatology Research and Practice, 2014
The objective of the current study was to assess whether Venosan elastic stockings have a synergistic effect on the maintenance of results after Mechanical Lymphatic Therapy. Eleven patients with grade II lymphedema of the legs, regardless of cause, were

Are non-slip socks really 'non-slip'? An analysis of slip resistance

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics, 2009
Background Non-slip socks have been suggested as a means of preventing accidental falls due to slips. This study compared the relative slip resistance of commercially available non-slip socks with other foot conditions, namely bare feet, compression ...

DO SPORT COMPRESSION STOCKINGS IMPROVE COMFORT AND ACCELEROMETRY PARAMETERS IN RUNNERS? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, we analysed accelerometry data from runners foot strikes with and without sport compression stockings. Also, we measured comfort perceived with these garments due its importance to a succesful performance.

Terminology: resistance or stiffness for medical compression stockings?

open access: yes, 2013
Based on previous experimental work with medical compression stockings it is proposed to restrict the term stiffness to measurements on the human leg and rather to speak about resistance when it comes to characterize the elastic property of compression ...
