The Feasibility of Underwater Computerised Strain Gauge Plethysmography and the Effects of Hydrostatic Pressure on the Leg Venous Haemodynamics

The Feasibility of Underwater Computerised Strain Gauge Plethysmography and the Effects of Hydrostatic Pressure on the Leg Venous Haemodynamics

Background: Strain gauge plethysmography (SGP) is employed to evaluate venous drainage of the lower leg. Methods: In this study, SGP was used to evaluate the effects of the hydrostatic pressure (HP) of water on venous volume (VV), expelled volume, and ejection fraction (EF) in 22 healthy legs before...
