The Use of Compression Bandages in Total Knee Replacement Surgery

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2013
The use of compression bandages in elective orthopaedic knee surgery is well regarded, however, there is a lack of robust, well-designed evidence to support this. The aim is to determine the feasibility of conducting a randomised control trial comparing the use of a compression bandage worn post-operatively for 24 hours after elective total knee replacement, compared to standard practice (wool and crepe, non-compressive dressing).
