A dynamic compression system for improving ulcer healing: Design of a sensing garment
2008
2008 IEEE International Conference on Multisensor Fusion and Integration for Intelligent Systems
Venous leg ulcers remain a major problem in the United States, with spending reaching upwards of $1 billion annually. Current treatment options center around the use of compression therapy, which is often delivered in the form of compression bandages, medical-grade stockings, or pneumatic devices. These technologies suffer from a lack of adaptability and/or portability, which may cause inefficient healing. A potential solution to this problem involves the use of an intelligent system that can
