How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
  • Allocation: RANDOMIZED
  • Interventional Model: PARALLEL
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Group I
Patients wear, for 90 days, the experimental Auto-Adjustable MOBIDERM® Armsleeve during night-time and a usual custom-made compressive armsleeve during Day-time.
Other Names:
  • MOBIDERM Autofit
NO_INTERVENTION: Group II
Patients wear, for 30 days, only a usual custom-made compressive armsleeve during Day-time and no garment during night-time. Then, for the next 60 days, patients wear the experimental Auto-Adjustable MOBIDERM® Armsleeve during night-time and a usual custom-made compressive armsleeve during Day-time.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in excess arm volume
Time Frame: between Day 0 and Day 30
Excess arm volume is defined as the volumetric difference between the affected upper limb compared to the contralateral upper limb, calculated with truncated cone formula
between Day 0 and Day 30
