PneumaSox: Fast and Furious!
During the EWMA in March, MSc K.S. van der Meer MD Presented new research on the application time of PneumaSox versus regular bandaging for chronic venous insufficiency.
The hypothesis was that, regardless of any experience with bandaging, the application time for PneumaSox would be at least twice as fast as for bandaging.
This hypothesis holds true, and PneumaSox even exceeded expectations!
Key takeaways
- PneumaSox can be applied 3x faster than two layer bandages
- Application of PneumaSox does not require experience or strength, so patients can wear it themselves
- Pneumasox can be used for 6 months, while most bandages are single-use
According to these results, PneumaSox is a promising alternative for classical compression therapy using bandages.
