Graduated Compression Stockings

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001
The mechanisms by which graduated compression stockings prevent deep venous thrombosis are not completely understood. In the current study the physiologic effect of low-pressure graduated compression stockings on the venous blood flow in the lower limb and the practical aspects of their use were assessed. Patients having elective orthopaedic surgery at

Pressure profiles of sport compression stockings

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2016
SummaryBackgroundWhile sport compression stockings (SCS) have become increasingly popular, there is no regulatory norm as exists for medical compression stockings (MCS). The objective of this pilot study was to compare five SCS with respect to their pressure profiles ex vivo and in vivo, and in relation to German standards for MCS (RAL norm).Patients ...

Venous haemodynamics and the effects of compression stockings

British Journal of Community Nursing, 2001
Over the years, graduated compression stockings exerting varying ankle pressures have been used with differing degrees of effectiveness in the prevention of deep venous thrombosis and ulcer recurrence, and the treatment of venous ulceration (Stemmer et al, 1980; Partsch and Horakova, 1994; Veraart et al, 1997).

Enoxaparin plus compression stockings compared with compression stockings alone in the prevention of venous thromboembolism after elective neurosurgery

Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology, 1998
Compression stockings are recommended for prophylaxis against venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing neurosurgery, but anticoagulant agents have not gained wide acceptance because of concern about intracranial bleeding.In a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial, we assessed the efficacy and safety of enoxaparin in conjunction with the use ...

Compression Stockings Reduce Occupational Leg Swelling

Dermatologic Surgery, 2004
Evening edema of the legs is a physiologic phenomenon occurring after sitting and standing.The objective of this study was to investigate which compression pressure is necessary to prevent leg swelling.In 12 volunteers, the volume of both lower legs was measured in the morning and 7 h later, the difference being defined as evening edema (mL).

The choice of compressive stocking.

Phlebologie, 1982
Correct prescription of an elastic stocking necessitates a thorough acquaintance with the physiopathy of the disorder in question and also of the patient's psychological make up. Superficial venous pressure at the ankle when a patient presenting venous insufficiency walks, as is to be seen in the clinical picture, determines the strength of the ...

[Use of elastic compression stockings].

Ugeskrift for laeger, 2016
Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is caused by venous insufficiency and is a frequent complication of deep venous thrombosis. Patients with PTS have reduced quality of life and an increased risk of recurrent deep venous thrombosis. Importantly, the risk of PTS is halved by the use of elastic compression stockings.
