Subbandage pressure assessment in the lower limb during supine positioning of patients in hip arthroplasty when traction is applied: a comparison between single and double layer bandages
Fixation with the tested systems is only advisable if the tensile force remains below 80 N throughout surgery. Short-term increases (e.g., for hip dislocation) are acceptable but should be brief and followed by adequate relief to allow tissue reperfusion. Additional padding is strongly recommended to distribute subbandage pressure at high traction forces.
