Summary

This study will mainly look at how well compression stockings decrease body weight between morning and night and the number of nocturia events, by preventing blood from pooling in your legs. Also, this research study is being done to collect the thoughts/reactions/opinions on how nocturia affects the life of one who suffers from nocturia.

Detailed description

This study intends to investigate the different causes nocturia. Patients with nocturia will be assigned to wearing knee high then thigh high compression stockings to assess the effect on weight gain during the day and the number of nocturia events. Renin and aldosterone levels will also be assessed. Furthermore, fluorescein dye will be used to to demonstrate vascular leakage of the fluorescent dye.

Conditions

• Nocturia

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Compression stockings	Graduated compression stockings (GCS) are used to treat chronic venous diseases and edema. They help to improve blood flow and prevent blood pooling in the legs. The use of GCS will be in accordance with this indication. The greatest pressure is exerted at the ankle with gradually decreasing pressures up the length of the stockings. GCS are designed for use out of bed and are manufactured using strict medical and technical specifications.
