Abstract | Background: Edema in some subjects worsens over time and wraps help to reduce the leg volume. Material and methods: An adjustable compression wrap was tried on volunteers for 5 h and volumes measured in each limb before and after wrapping using a 3D surface scanner (HandySCAN 3D®) to estimate the volume of the leg. The contralateral leg was used as control. Results: We observed a significant decrease in volume in the wrap legs and an increase in the control legs ( Conclusions: Using the Readywrap® for 5 hours significantly reduces the leg volume. This study enables Readywrap to be studied in a population that is easy to observe in the context of a research program. The Handyscan3D® was shown accurate and reproducible to assess leg volume in future studies. |
