Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Venous thromboembolism is prevalent, associated with a high degree of morbidity and mortality, and largely preventable. External mechanical compression is a standard of care for prevention, but compliance with traditional external mechanical compression devices is low due to patient reported issues with comfort, mobility, usability, noise, and sleep disturbances. The purpose of this study was to compare user-rated comfort, mobility, usability, noise, perceived sleep disturbance, and objective sleep disturbance for a novel external lower limb mechanical compression device as compared to a standard sequential compression device. Using a 2-day counterbalanced, within-subject repeated-measures design, 16 participants wore two mechanical compression devices, the commonly-used Kendall sequential compression device Express 9525 and the novel Recovery Force Movement and Compressions Device for 1 night each in their home while sleep was recorded with polysomnography. For each device, participants also completed questionnaires to assess usability, mobility, perceived noise disturbance, and perceived sleep disturbance.
