  • Title: Managing venous leg ulcers and oedema using compression hosiery.
    Author: Tickle J.
    Journal: Nurs Stand; 2015 Oct 21; 30(8):57-63. PubMed ID: 26488996.
    Abstract:
    Increasing demand for services and rising costs in the NHS have resulted in reduced consultation times and resources for clinicians when treating patients with compression therapy. This article emphasises the importance of considering alternative treatment approaches, while encouraging patient choice, independence and self-care. One alternative treatment is the use of compression hosiery kits for the management of venous leg ulceration and oedema.
