| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to evaluate effectiveness of superficial lymph flow by intermittent pneumatic compression of 6 chambers with various modes for inflation and deflation using fluorescence lymphography. Suitable shape of a boot was also examined. Lymph flow was evaluated by analysis of intensity using a soft ware because lymph flow can be approximate to intensity changes. We observed steep intensity changes by alternate deflation mode from the thigh to the foot in healthy persons. This mode of deflation was applied for a patent. We applied the same study to secondary lymphedema patients and intensity was steeper in inflation-mode of regular order from the foot to the thigh. We also observed intensity was more gradual in severe lymphedema patients, which suggests strong compression may be necessary to accelerate lymph flow in sever lymph edema patients. The boot that can compress the dorsum of the foot was effective to accelerate lymph flow.
