Last year, NWSSP commissioned Dr Steve Thomas to write a review of the use of compression wraps in lymphodema.

A paper based on this work has now been published in the Journal of Lymphoedema, 2017, Vol 12, No 1, pages 32–38​.

Dr Thomas concluded:

"Although the evidence is by no means overwhelming, the controlled extended use of compression wraps for the treatment of lymphoedema appears to be supported both on clinical and financial grounds and, therefore, should be given serious consideration."
