“…This is because more pressure is exerted with a higher inlay yarn insertion density. The theoretical pressure values calculated using the equation did not accurately predict the values found using the experimental method due to several limitations, as explained by other researchers [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ]. The correlation coefficient of the interface pressure using both experimental and theoretical methods was found to be 0.632, as shown in Figure 7 .…”

This paper focuses on the comfort properties of graduated and preventive compression stockings for people who work long hours in standing postures and for athletes for proper blood circulation. The present study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of the yarn insertion density and inlaid stitches on the performance of the compression stockings. The effects of these parameters on the thermo-physiological comfort properties were tested with standard and developed methods of testing. All compression stockings were maintained with class 1 pressure as per German standards. The structural parameters of the knitted fabric structures were investigated. The stretching and recovery properties were also investigated to determine the performance properties. The theoretical pressure was predicated using the Laplace’s law by testing the stockings’ tensile properties. The compression interface pressures of all stockings were also investigated using a medical stocking tester (MST) from Salzmann AG, St. Gallen, Switzerland. Correlation between the theoretical pressures and pressures measured using the MST system were also assessed. The current research used a multi-response optimization technique, i.e., principal component analysis (PCA), to identify the best structure based on the optimalization of the above-mentioned properties. The results also revealed that samples with higher insertion density levels exhibit better comfort properties. The results showed that sample R1 was the best sample, followed by R2 and P. In addition, all developed stocking samples exhibited better comfort properties than the control sample from the market.

“…Owing to standardized IP measurement, it is possible to compare and develop new compression systems as well as to select the optimum compression option for individual clinical situations. IP is measured under the compression layer, preferably at the B1 point [ 18 , 21 , 22 ]. Commercially available measurement devices include Picopress (Microlabitalia, Padua, Italy) and Kikuhime (Meditrade, Soro, Denmark) as well as piezoresistive pressure sensors.…”

“…Commercially available measurement devices include Picopress (Microlabitalia, Padua, Italy) and Kikuhime (Meditrade, Soro, Denmark) as well as piezoresistive pressure sensors. Both types offer a comparable measurement accuracy [ 22 ]. There are also newer devices which enable real-time IP measurement.…”

Compression therapy (CT) is an established treatment method in chronic venous disease. Despite years of clinical experience, choosing the optimum compression therapy, including grade and pressure distribution, which determine the efficacy of treatment poses a challenge. The paper discusses CT physical assumptions (stiffness, elasticity, static and dynamic stiffness indices), clinical effects and contraindications to CT.
