Walking training after first leg blood clot: a study
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a progressive walking program helps people recover better after their first leg blood clot (DVT). You would be part of a walking training group and researchers will see if it improves walking ability and leg symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- This is your first blood clot (deep vein thrombosis) in your leg.
- You were hospitalized at the emergency department for this clot.
- You are able to cooperate both mentally and physically (for example, can follow instructions and move to do walking exercises).
- You have a Danish social security number.
- You are not terminally ill (with a life expectancy of months or less).
- You can understand and speak Danish.

This study follows adults who may have a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism) or leg (deep vein thrombosis), or who were found to have a clot by chance. It aims to improve how doctors diagnose, manage, and estimate risk, which may lead to better, more tailored care for you.
This study tests a new, non-invasive skin sensor that uses electrical currents to see how well clot-busting medication is working in people with deep vein thrombosis (a blood clot in the leg). The goal is to make monitoring easier and more comfortable.
This study tracks how well the Cleaner Vac® system works to remove blood clots from leg veins over time. It may be an option for people with new or recent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) who are getting their first treatment.
This study looks at people having their first blood clot in the leg and how it can affect them long-term. It may help doctors better predict complications and improve follow-up care after an emergency visit.
This study looks at how a 60-minute walking test affects blood clotting in people who have had a provoked blood clot (from a known cause like surgery or birth control) compared to similar people who have never had a clot. It helps understand how the body's clotting system works after such a clot.
This study follows people who had a serious blood clot in their lungs that also affected their heart's right side. It tests how their ability to walk and move changes over 6 months, helping doctors understand recovery better.
