title = "Nocturnal use of light compression garments and recovery",
abstract = "The aim of the study was to investigate nocturnal effect of wearing whole-body light compression garments on post-exercise recovery. HRV analysis was used to evaluate the recovery. The study involved sixteen female Finnish baseball players for four three-day-periods. The participants wore light compression garments every other three-day period and kept record of daily events. The analyzed period was 4 hours starting from the moment subjects fell asleep. The HRV analysis was performed for the time domain, frequency domain and nonlinear measurements. There were no statistical differences in HRV parameters between nights when subjects used or did not use light compression garments. This indicates that whole-body light compression garments had no benefits on the post-exercise recovery during the night.",
