Summary

This phase I Healthy Volunteer study will evaluate the pressure interface between the devices (a compression device and Profore®) and the skin, using the PicoPress(TM) pressure transducer at specified time intervals in three distinct locations on the leg, in both the sitting and standing position. It will also assess the variability of interface pressure following application under each test device for each subject over a period of three days (three separate applications).

Conditions

  • Healthy Volunteers

Interventions

DEVICE

Compression Device

The compression device will be worn for 8 hours each day on one leg. The device will be applied by the same clinician every morning.Interface pressure measurements will be made in both the sitting and standing position at three locations on the leg at the following time intervals: * Immediately following device application * 1 hour * 4 hours * 8 hours

DEVICE

Profore®

Profore® will be worn for 8 hours each day on opposite leg. Profore® will be applied by the same clinician every morning.Interface pressure measurements will be made in both the sitting and standing position at three locations on the leg at the following time intervals: * Immediately following device application * 1 hour * 4 hours * 8 hours
