Summary
This study looked at whether wearing special compression stockings during the day for 28 days could reduce breathing pauses during sleep in people with sleep apnea. The idea is that these stockings prevent fluid from building up in the legs and moving to the neck, which can cause breathing problems. The study included 25 adults with moderate to severe sleep apnea who had stopped other treatments.
