METHOD FOR ASSESSING THE RETENTION OF ELASTIC VENOUS COMPRESSION ORTHOPEDIC MEANS ON THE LOWER EXTREMITY

摘要

The orthopedic remedy (10) contains a part for the foot (12); pagolenok (14), which exerts therapeutic compression pressure created with the help of textiles, on the leg; and the side part (16), knitted by elastic weaving, exerting a locally holding pressure created by the textile to prevent the side part from slipping down under the elastic return force (F) acting from the side of the pagolen stretched in the longitudinal direction. The method comprises obtaining a dataset representing the morphological characteristics of a limb; rheological characteristics of pagolenka orthopedic remedies; characteristics of friction in the inter-surface space between a limb and a pagolenka of an orthopedic remedy; rheological characteristics of the onboard part of the orthopedic means; and friction characteristics in the inter-surface space between the limb and the side part of the orthopedic means. The next step is to numerically model the impact on the limb of the pagolenka and the side of the orthopedic means, and to provide at least one indicator by which it is possible to quantify the conditions under which the orthopedic means will be held on the limb.
