Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this randomised comparison study is to compare different bandage interface pressures in individuals with breast cancer related lymphedema The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is high or low bandage pressure effective in reducing edema and soft tissue thickness? - do bandages applied with high or low bandage pressure comprimise sleep, comfort or subjective benefit from treatment? Participants will recieve complex decongestive physiotherapy. Bandage will apply high or low pressure. Effects of high and low bandage interface pressures will compare


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of compression bandage applied with different pressures on skin and subcutaneous thickness in individuals with breast cancer-related lymphedema. individuals with stage 2 unilateral lymphedema participated in the study. Skin and subcutaneous thicknesses, extremity volumes, sleep quality, treatment benefit, comfort during treatment were evaluated respectively by ultrasound from 6 reference points as dorsum of hand, wrist volar, forearm dorsum, forearm volar, arm dorsum, arm volar, volumetric measurement, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Patient Benefit Index-Lymphedema, and visual analog scale. Complex decongestive physiotherapy was applied to individuals randomly divided into two groups: low (20-30 mmHg) and high bandage pressure (45-55 mmHg). Individuals were evaluated before treatment, at 1st, 10th session, end of treatment, and at 3 months follow-up. ;
