An automatic pneumatic system designed to investigate the physiological effects induced by limb compressions, able to apply customizable pressure patterns in the physiologic range (0–200 mmHg), is here presented. A mathematical model, simulating the whole pneutronic system and its interaction with the limb is described. The model is validated by means of experimental tests. An on-going study aiming to investigate the role of different factors in the development of post compression hyperemia is presented.

Abstract

An automatic pneumatic system designed to investigate the physiological effects induced by limb compressions, able to apply customizable pressure patterns in the physiologic range (0–200 mmHg), is here presented. A mathematical model, simulating the whole pneutronic system and its interaction with the limb is described. The model is validated by means of experimental tests. An on-going study aiming to investigate the role of different factors in the development of post compression hyperemia is presented.
