A project by Dr\u00a0Markos Klonizakis, has\u00a0been featured by the Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB)\u00a0programme\u00a0for their 10th Anniversary celebration.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The RfPB is a national, researcher-led programme\u00a0which supports research motivated by the day-to-day practice of health service staff that could have an impact on the health or wellbeing of patients and other users of the NHS. RfPB has funded\u00a0150 plus\u00a0projects over the last 10 years.<\/p>\n

This year RfPB celebrated its 10th anniversary.\u00a0They\u00a0ran a special ‘Research Idea’ feature on their website, selecting only\u00a0four researchers who’s work\u00a0they felt\u00a0highlighted the diversity of the projects supported by the programme.<\/p>\n

Dr Klonizakis was one of the four researchers to have his project; ‘Could exercise help patients with leg ulcers?’, put under the spotlight. The project explored the feasibility of using\u00a0 supervised exercise as an adjunct therapy to compression, in patients with venous ulcers. With venous ulceration costing about \u00a3400 million per year to the NHS and with the condition affecting about 400,000 new people per year (who have their\u00a0lives significantly affected as well), there is a clear need to find ways where the healing process is supported.<\/p>\n

You can read more about the project here\u00a0<\/a>and the\u00a0full research paper can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
