Abstract:
Objective A randomized clinical trial was performed to compare the effectiveness of unmarked bandages and customized bandages with visual markers in reproducing the desired sub-bandage pressure during self-bandaging by patients. Method Ninety patients were randomly allocated to two groups (“customized bandages” and “unmarked bandages”) and asked to perform self-bandaging three times. The achievement of a pressure between 35 and 45 mmHg in at least two of the three attempts was defined as adequate quality. Results Adequate quality was achieved by 33.0% when applying the unmarked bandages, and 6

Abstract:
It has been shown that bandages rapidly lose their ability to compress the leg in ambulant patients. However, they are still widely used following varicose vein surgery. We have measured the compression produced by crepe bandages, elastocrepe bandages or graduated high compression stockings following varicose vein surgery. Pressures exerted by the bandages and stockings were measured during the first 24 h following operation. Initially the bandages exerted greater pressures than the stockings. However, the bandaging techniques lost 13-38% of their compression in the first hour and 29–48% in 24

Compression bandaging is the mainstay of the treatment of chronic venous leg ulcers.

Vascular diseases are among the most common diseases in the world. Whether acute or chronic cases, compression therapy by bandaging is a well-known treatment for the majority of these diseases. In the textile processing of bandages, the influence of material chemistry (e.g. viscosity), the laws of physics (e.g. resiliency), and the medical requirements in the therapy must be taken into account.

Background: Compression treatments used the following intervention for varicose veins range from no compression, to elastic stockings and compression bandaging. There is no consensus on the strength or duration of compression which should be applied following a particular treatment. The author reviews the evidence that has led him to reach his own viewpoint on this subject. Summary: Compression stockings are often prescribed after treatment of varicose veins, but these in general exert a much lower pressure in the thigh compared with firm inelastic compression bandages.

SummaryGraduated compression stockings are used in both surgical and non-surgical treatment of varicose veins. In a trial of high versus low compression stockings (40mmHg vs 15mmHg at ankle) after varicose vein surgery, both were equally effective in controlling bruising and thrombophlebitis, but low compression stockings proved to be more comfortable.In a further trial after sclerotherapy, high compression stockings alone produced comparable results to Elastocrepe® bandages with stockings. It is concluded that after varicose vein surgery low compression stockings provide adequate support for

AbstractCompression bandage (CB) as a porous material should provide both graduated pressure and thermal comfort properties to enable air permeability, heat transfer, and liquid perspiration out of the human body. The main factors affecting thermal comfort properties are the temperature difference between environment and skin, yarns’ structure and material, fabric thickness, porosity, areal density, number of fabric layers, trapped air, and fabric structure. Thermal resistance (Rct) and water vapor resistance (Ret) are evaluated for four types of woven CBs. All bandage types were applied at th

Summary Background: Compression therapy (CT) is the stronghold of treatment of venous leg ulcers. We evaluated 5 modalities of CT in a prospective open pilot study using a unique trial design. Patients and methods: A group of experienced phlebologists assigned 31 consecutive patients with 35 venous ulcers (present for 2 to 24 months with no prior CT) to 5 different modalities of leg compression, 7 ulcers to each group. The challenge was to match the modality of CT with the features of the ulcer in order to achieve as many healings as possible. Wound care used standard techniques and specifical

Abstract:
Introduction. Secondary upper-extremity lymphedema is most commonly caused by lymphadenectomy and radiotherapy (RT) of regional lymph nodes. Lymphatic edema differ in the fact that they lead to fibrotic changes in tissues, as the lymph contains up to 2–4% of protein, which causes a specific histopathological response. Proteins, as well as tissue protein-polysaccharide complexes, undergo transformations leading to pathological collagenization, and then to hyalinization and sclerosis.

The first-line treatment for venous leg ulcers (VLUs) is compression therapy, most commonly, with compression bandages. A similar treatment measure is used for lymphoedema in the form of Velcro compression wraps (VCWs). However, the use of VCWs for VLUs is less evident, and a direct comparison to compression bandaging is not evident. This review explores the evidence to support the use of VCWs for the treatment of VLUs in order to raise awareness of alternative forms of compression therapy.
