Aim of the paper is to cure the swelling of a body part with the help of compression bandages which are made with different fibers. Some of the natural and synthetic fiber materials are used for compression bandages that is cotton, viscose, Lycra, polyester, nylon, and latex. The main property of compression bandage is its flexibility. Compression bandage is mainly used for curing the Venous Leg Ulcers. Swelling is caused due to the clotting of the blood in body part; in order to heal the clot effectively compression bandage is used. Compression bandage assist veins to transfer the de-oxygenated blood to the ventricle by providing pressure to the part which is swollen. The present problem faced by using the compression bandage is severe pain at the injured area due to the fluctuated pressure applied by the clinician. Even skilled clinician applies the compression bandage but it gets severe pain to the patient caused by the uneven pressure applied. Uneven distribution of the pressure may also leads the swelling to chronic stage. In order to reduce the problems faced due to fluctuating pressure, sensor is used in combination with compression bandage. So that the semi-skilled nurse can also apply the bandage effectively and efficiently. This paper concentrates on bandages which are arranged in combination with sensor in order to minimize the problems faced due to uneven pressure. |
