Abstract
A device for the determination of parameters, particularly for therapeutic compression measures on limbs (10), comprises an anatomically-modelled limb (10), to which the compression measures may be applied, with sensors (42), provided on the limb (10), for recording said parameter. The surface (44) of the limb (10) is at least partially elastically-deformable in at least one direction and at least one simulation device for a muscle (22, 24) is provided in the limb (10), which may be controlled to give a merely partial deformation of the surface (44) of the limb (10).

1-12. (canceled)
A device for determining parameters of therapeutical compression means on limbs, the device comprising:
- an anatomically modelled limb to which the compression means can be mounted, said limb having a surface which can be at least partially elastically deformed in at least one direction;
- at least one sensor disposed on said limb for detecting the parameters to be determined;
- at least one muscle simulation means disposed in said limb;
- and means for driving said muscle simulation means to partially deform said surface of said limb.
