Information on anti-embolic stockings after vein surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving patients information about anti-embolic stockings (special socks that help prevent blood clots) after vein surgery helps them use them correctly. The goal is to improve recovery and reduce complications.

This study tests if wearing compression stockings after surgery can help prevent blood clots in people who already need to take blood thinners for an extended period. The stockings are used in addition to the blood thinners.
This study tests whether specialized nursing guidance helps patients recover better after surgery for varicose veins (enlarged veins in the legs). The nursing support focuses on helping you manage your own care at home after surgery.
This trial studies whether a specific type of compression helps reduce swelling in the leg after a bypass surgery to improve blood flow. It may help people manage “edema” (fluid-related swelling) while healing after revascularization.
This trial tests whether giving medicine to prevent blood clots during varicose vein treatment is safe and helpful. It focuses on people having a minimally invasive procedure on enlarged leg veins under local anesthesia.
This trial compares two blood-thinning strategies after leg artery surgery or angioplasty to prevent dangerous blood clots. Participants will receive either rivaroxaban plus aspirin or aspirin alone, and researchers will monitor for clots over 30 days.
This trial looks at whether compression stockings are still needed for people who have a new hip or knee joint and are following a modern "fast-track" recovery program. It aims to find out if these stockings are necessary to prevent blood clots when people are up and moving quickly after surgery.
