A pressure profile for elastic stockings.
Special equipment to measure the circumferential compression exerted by an elastic stocking was used to determine the "pressure-girth profiles" of several types of elastic stocking. Once the pressure-girth profile has been determined, the pressure exerted at the ankle, calf, and thigh can be predicted for any size of limb without further pressure measurements. An excellent correlation (r = 0.96...
متن کاملElastic compression stockings for prevention of deep vein thrombosis.
BACKGROUND One of the settings where deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limb and pelvic veins occurs is in hospital with prolonged immobilisation of patients for various surgical and medical illnesses. Using graduated compression stockings (GCS) in these patients has been proposed to decrease the risk of DVT. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 2000 and updated in 200...
متن کاملUse and application of graduated elastic compression stockings.
As part of Nursing Standards clinical skills series, this article discusses how to apply graduated elastic compression stockings, which are used as a prophylactic method to prevent deep vein thrombosis and its more serious complication, pulmonary embolism.
متن کاملEffects of gradual-elastic compression stockings on running economy, kinematics, and performance in runners.
We investigated the effect of gradual-elastic compression stockings (GCSs) on running economy (RE), kinematics, and performance in endurance runners. Sixteen endurance trained athletes (age: 34.73 ± 6.27 years; VO2max: 62.83 ± 9.03 ml·kg(-1)·min(-1); 38 minutes in 10 km; 1 hour 24 minutes in half marathon) performed in random order 4 bouts of 6 minutes at a recent half-marathon pace on a treadm...
متن کاملLong-term effects of graduated compression stockings on cardiorespiratory performance
The use of graduated compression stockings (GCS) in sport has been increasing in the last years due to their potential positive effects for athletes. However, there is little evidence to support whether these types of garments actually improve cardiorespiratory performance. The aim of this study was to examine the cardiorespiratory responses of GCS during running after three weeks of regular us...
