Abstract

The effect of Class II compression stockings on maternal and fetal circulation was studied in left lateral position and standing in 21 patients with uterovascular syndrome in late pregnancy. The effect of different compression pressures was analyzed in further seven women also suffering from uterovascular syndrome in late pregnancy. It was shown that the use of compression stockings causes a measurable improvement in maternal and fetal circulation. The most favourable compression pressure for the maternal circulation parameters measured is 40 mmHg.
