Summary

This study looked at whether supervised training with real-time pressure feedback helps physiotherapy students apply compression bandages more accurately than just reading a brochure. 41 fourth-year students were split into two groups: one got expert-led practice with sensors, the other only an instructional brochure. Researchers measured bandaging skill, pressure accuracy, and student confidence before and after training.
