This research aims to acquire information on the users’ needs around graduated compression stockings (GCS) and identify the drawbacks of current available GCS designs. Their difficulties in wearing, daily use, and the factors affecting the selection of the compression stockings, will be identified in the online survey and focus group using Zoom. To identify the performance of GCS as currently worn in everyday settings, the pressure provided by the participants’ GCS will be measured by the non-intrusive pressure sensor, and the dimension of their legs will be scanned by a Artec LEO handheld visual scanner.
