A concept paper: “the development of sky arms: a novel system for alleviating edema using the 4D development model”

Millions of people worldwide suffer from oedema, a condition that frequently shows up as swelling in the upper extremities and is characterized by an abnormal buildup of fluid in tissues. Efficient management of oedema is crucial for alleviating symptoms and improving patient outcomes, t...
