tissue Fluid pressure and flow during pneumatic compression in lymphedema of lower limbs
Lymphatic Research and Biology, 2011Co-Authors: W L Olszewski, Pradeep Jain, Govinda Ambujam, Marzanna Zaleska, Marta Cakala, Tomasz GradalskiAbstract:Abstract Background: Physiotherapy of edema in cases with obstructed main lymphatics of lower limbs requires knowledge of how high external pressures should be applied manually or set in compression devices in order to generate tissue pressures high enough to move tissue Fluid to nonswollen regions and to measure its flow rate. Methods: We measured tissue Fluid pressure and flow in subcutaneous tissue of lymphedematous limbs stages II to IV at rest and during pneumatic compression under various pressures and inflation timing. An 8-chamber sequential compression device inflated to pressures 50–120 mmHg, for 50 sec each chamber, with no distal deflation, was used. Pressures were measured using a wick-in-needle and electronic Manometer. Fluid flow was calculated from continuously recorded changes in limb circumference using strain gauge plethysmography. Results: Before massage, in all stages of lymphedema, stagnant tissue Fluid pressures in subcutaneous tissue ranged between −1 and +10 mmHg and did not diffe...
