Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Meßvorrichtung zur Ermittlung von Beinumfangmaßen zur Anpassung von medizinischen Kompressionsstrümpfen in der Phlebologie.The invention relates to a measuring device for determining leg circumference measurements for adjusting medical compression stockings in phlebology.

Die Kompression ist ein wichtiges therapeutisches Hilfsmittel bei der Erkrankung der Beinvenen. Dazu werden u. a. medizinische Kompressionsstrumpfe in vielen Größen und in vier Kompressionsklassen gefertigt. Eine genaue Verordnung, d. h. eine korrekte Anpassung an die Beinmaße und die Auswahl der richtigen Größe, sind Vorraussetzungen für eine suffiziente Behandlung.Compression is an important therapeutic aid for leg vein disease. For this purpose, medical compression stockings are manufactured in many sizes and in four compression classes. A precise prescription, i.e. correct adjustment to the leg measurements and selection of the right size, are prerequisites for adequate treatment.

Die Relevanz der Kompressionsstrumpf-Therapie zeigt die Tatsache, daß in der alten Bundesrepublik
Deutschland ca. 1.5 Millionen Menschen Strumpfträger sind.The relevance of compression stocking therapy is demonstrated by the fact that in the old Federal Republic
In Germany, around 1.5 million people wear stockings.

Stand der Technik:State of the art: Die Längenmaße bezeichnen die Distanz von der Fußsohle bis zum entsprechenden Umfangmaß.The length measurements indicate the distance from the sole of the foot to the corresponding circumference measurement. Die spezifischen Längenmeßpunkte sind entlang des Beines festgelegt.The specific length measurement points are determined along the leg. Zu jedem Längenmeßpunkt wird das korrespondierende Umfangmaß ermittelt.For each length measuring point, the corresponding circumference measurement is determined. Herkömmlicherweise wird zum Feststellen der Beinmaße ein Meßbrett verwendet, an welchem dieTraditionally, a measuring board is used to determine the leg measurements, on which the Längenmaße direkt in Zentimetern abgelesen werden und die Werte mittels eines Stiftes auf das zuLength measurements can be read directly in centimeters and the values can be written on the

vermessende Bein angezeichnet werden müssen.The leg to be measured must be marked.

Die Umfangmaße werden mit einem losen Maßband ermittelt.The circumference measurements are determined using a loose tape measure. Die Verwendung des Meßbrettes erscheint zum einen unpraktisch, weil zu aufwendig und zum anderenThe use of the measuring board appears to be impractical on the one hand because it is too complex and on the other hand

ungenau, weil ein zweifelfreies Ablesen nicht garantiert ist.inaccurate because an unambiguous reading is not guaranteed.
