Patients with recently healed leg ulceration were entered into a study of leg ulcer recurrence. In all, 188 patients [69% women, mean age = 72 (SD = 12) years] were entered into the study, of whom 166 were considered suitable for ready-made stockings and were randomized to one of two class II below-knee compression stockings and followed for at least 18 months. The remaining patients required either made-to-measure stockings (5) or could not tolerate stockings owing to friable skin and were treated by other methods (17). Overall cumulative recurrence rate was 26% after 1 year and 31% at 18 months. Independent risk factors for (RR = 2.34, p = 0.021) and unsuitability for stockings (RR = 2.52, p = 0.013). The randomized groups had similar stockings, 25 (15%) could not put their stockings on at all and 43 (26%) were only able to put them on with great difficulty. The two stocking types differed significantly in this regard when analysed for trend.
近期腿部溃疡已愈合的患者被纳入一项腿部溃疡复发的研究。共有188名患者[69%为女性，平均年龄=72（标准差=12）岁]进入该研究，其中166名被认为适合使用成品弹力袜，并被随机分为两种II级膝下压力袜中的一种，随访至少18个月。其余患者要么需要定制弹力袜（5名），要么因皮肤脆弱无法耐受弹力袜，采用其他方法治疗（17名）。1年后总体累积复发率为26%，18个月时为31%。复发的独立危险因素为（相对风险=2.34，p=0.021）以及不适合使用弹力袜（相对风险=2.52，p=0.013）。随机分组的患者使用的弹力袜类似，25名（15%）根本无法穿上弹力袜，43名（26%）只能非常困难地穿上。分析趋势时，两种弹力袜类型在这方面存在显著差异。
