Abstract

Background: This hypothesis introduces pump shoes as a method for the prevention and treatment of varicose veins.

Method: An air pump is placed in the shoe, connected to an airbag wrapped around the leg through a hose. With each step, air is pumped into the foot airbag, applying pressure to the leg muscles and superficial veins. This action mimics muscle pumping, helping to push blood back towards the heart. Excess air is released through an outlet hose with an adjustable sphincter, allowing for increased pressure on the leg.

Results & conclusion: These shoes offer a simple mechanism to assist in returning blood from the feet to the heart. They can be beneficial in preventing varicose veins in at-risk individuals or treating those in the early stages of the disease.

假设预防和治疗静脉曲张的泵鞋。
背景:本假设介绍了一种预防和治疗静脉曲张的方法--泵鞋:方法:在鞋内放置一个气泵,通过软管连接到缠绕在腿上的气囊。每走一步,空气就被打入脚部气囊,对腿部肌肉和浅静脉施加压力。这一动作模仿了肌肉泵血,有助于将血液推回心脏。多余的空气通过带有可调节括约肌的出口软管排出,从而增加对腿部的压力:这双鞋提供了一种简单的机制,帮助血液从脚部回流到心脏。结果与结论:这种鞋提供了一种简单的机制,可以帮助血液从脚部回流到心脏,有利于高危人群预防静脉曲张或治疗早期静脉曲张。
