A newly designed SIPC device for management of lymphoedema.
WARNING TO ALL LYMPHEDEMA PATIENTS
This abstract is a prime example of just how bad information can be that is presented even through PubMed.
Lymphology 101 clearly shows that high pressure pneumatic devices can cause serious damage to the good lymphatics, making lymphedema even worse.
Read this for education, but please, please, please, what ever you do never ever ever set the compression level on high if you use a pneumatic device.
