Compression Stocking With 100% Donning and Doffing Success: An Open Label Randomised Controlled Trial

The aim of this study was to test whether an investigational two layer stocking exerting 27 –29 mmHg pressure at the medial supramalleolar level, but without compression in the foot and heel, is easier to put on and take off than a standard stocking of the same compression class (23–32 mmHg), and also to assess the prevention of diurnal oedema with both types of stocking.
