Acti-Glide: a simple method of applying compression hosiery.
Compression hosiery is often worn to help prevent aching legs and swollen ankles, to prevent ulceration, to treat venous ulceration or to treat varicose veins. However, patients and nurses may experience problems applying hosiery and this can lead to non-concordance in patients and possibly reluctance from nurses to use compression hosiery. A simple solution to applying firm hosiery is Acti-Glide from Activa Healthcare.
