A novel, micromobile foot compression device (MMC) has been developed to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism associated with prolonged seated immobility.<jats:italic>Objective<\/jats:italic>. To compare the efficacy of the MMC with graduated compression stockings in augmenting lower limb venous blood flow.<jats:italic>Patients\/Methods<\/jats:italic>. Twenty participants were randomised to wear the MMC or a graduated compression stocking (GCS) on either the left or right leg while seated.

The primary outcome variable was peak systolic velocity. A mixed linear model was used, with covariates including baseline measurement, randomised side, time, and a time by interaction term.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. The mean popliteal vein peak systolic velocity at 60 minutes with the MMC was 20.1\u2009cm\/s which was significantly higher than with the GCS (difference 14.1\u2009cm\/s 95% CI 12.1\u201316.2), representing a 3.8-fold increase from baseline.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. The MMC resulted in a marked increase in lower limb venous blood flow which suggests that it may have efficacy in reducing the risk of venous thromboembolism associated with prolonged seated immobility, such as long distance air travel.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/948769","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,11]],"date-time":"2013-11-11T16:01:28Z","timestamp":1384185688000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Efficacy
