Which patients with arm oedema are helped by intermittent external pneumatic compression therapy.

G Newman1.   

Abstract

Twenty-two breast cancer patients with arm oedema answered a questionnaire to assess the efficacy of intermittent pneumatic compression therapy. Ten patients found the treatment useful, 12 were disappointed. A number of factors were analysed to find out whether it is possible to predict the outcome of treatment.
