Chronic edema of the leg is a risk factor for cellulitis. Daily use compression garments on has been recommended to prevent recurrence cellulitis, but there limited evidence from trials regarding its effectiveness.
Objectives To determine whether bioimpedance spectroscopy was suitable for detection of hand lymphoedema. Methods The hands 50 participants without a history lymphoedema were measured with perometry and after positioning two ways three minutes: (a) both rested at heart height (b) the dominant non-dominant head height. In addition, 10 women secondary also measured. Results Impedance volume measurements found to be strongly related (dominant r = −0.794). Both reliable (ICC 2,1 0.900–0.967...
Background: Cellulitis is a common and often recurrent infection that causes substantial financial burden morbidity. Compression therapy reduces the risk of cellulitis episodes for adults with chronic edema; however, little known about cost-effectiveness intervention. Methods Results: A cost analysis was undertaken during randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 84 participants lower limb edema history cellulitis. The intervention group received compression education, while control...
Introduction Cellulitis represents a significant burden to patients’ quality of life (QOL) and cost the healthcare system, especially due its recurrent nature. Chronic oedema is strong risk factor for both an initial episode cellulitis recurrence. Expert consensus advises compression therapy prevent recurrence in individuals with chronic oedema, however, there little supporting evidence. This research aims determine if management using effectively delays lower limb cellulitis. Methods...
An apparatus has been described by Keene (1960) for the routine dispensing of therapeutic doses 131I solution in range 1 to 20 mc. This equipment provides periodic replenishment a stock about 150 mc from which individual are drawn off as required. Our practice at London Hospital differs this that each dose is ordered separately Radiochemical Centre. We therefore require device will permit entire contents standard 10 ml. R.C.C. ampoule be transferred safely shielded vessel which, after...
