Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effects of foot bathing on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prevention, cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), and deep tissue oxygen saturation were considered from the hemodynamics perspective. The results of an experiment that used CAVI in young females suggested that the experiment time should be synchronized. The possibility that the skin temperature was affected by seasonal variation was suggested. Our results indicated that the foot bath influenced the blood flow in the lower limbs. However, further studies are needed to clarify the effect of foot bathing on deep-vein thrombosis prevention.
