Development of a Clinical Screening, Diagnostic and Evaluation Tool for Patients With Lower Limb Lymphedema: Aim 1
Of all of the different measurement methods that are currently available for use in clinical practice for assessing the same lymphedema characteristic (for example water displacement versus perimetry, both assessing swelling) or different lymphedema characteristics (for example water content in the skin versus hardness of the skin versus thickness of …
Development of a Clinical Screening, Diagnostic and Evaluation Tool for Patients With Lower Limb Lymphedema: Aim 4
Research investigating measurement properties for evaluating the decongestive treatment effect on different edema characteristics (e.g. water volume, hardness of the skin, water content,..) at the level of the lower limbs is missing. Information about the clinical relevant change criteria after treatment for nearly all these edema characteristics, is not present …
Development of a Clinical Screening, Diagnostic and Evaluation Tool for Patients With Lower Limb Lymphedema: Aim 3
The current best practice is a three-stage classification consensus guideline as published by the International Society of Lymphology (ISL). Severity of lymphedema is however not only determined by presence of pitting (which is the phenomenon when the swollen area has a dimple (or pit) after you press it for 5 …
