title: [Efficasy of compression therapy of the lower limbs in the treatment of patients with vasovagal syncopes].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study efficacy and tolerance of compressive textile in the treatment of vasovagal syncopes.
  
  
  METHODS
  The trial included 9 patients with recurrent vasovagal syncopes confirmed at bicycle exercise tests. The patients wore long medical stockings (Sigvaris, Ganzoni & Cie AG, compression of class II). The textile was tailored individually in all the patients. The effect of wearing stockings was tested at bicycle exercise (two tests before wearing to the syncope, one test 1-3 days after the second test upon 1 hour of wearing the stockings).
  
  
  RESULTS
  None of the bicycle exercise tests done in the stockings was accompanied with syncopes. None of the patients experienced discomfort while putting on, wearing the stockings or performing the exercise.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Good therapeutic effects and tolerance were registered when wearing therapeutic textile.
