Venous Thromboembolism Clinical Trial
Official title:
Prevention of Thromboembolism and Failed Healing During Lower Limb Immobilization - Multicenter Study With Adjuvant Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Therapy
Lower limb immobilization is associated with high risk of complications, i.e. venous thromboembolism (VTE) and failed healing. Pharmacoprophylaxis of VTE is in leg-immobilized patients, however, low- or non-effective and associated with adverse events. Thus, there is a need for novel treatments. This study aims to demonstrate in leg immobilized patients who have suffered an ankle fracture (1000 patients) or an Achilles tendon rupture (400 patients) that adjuvant intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) therapy, which targets impaired vascular flow, compared to treatment-as-usual with plaster cast, reduces VTE incidence and improves healing.
The proposed intervention, intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) is an evidence-based prevention for VTE in hospitalized patients and used in daily practice. IPC is, however, not currently used on outpatients and it is currently unknown if it reduces the risk of VTE during long term leg-immobilization. Plaster cast and orthosis treatments are currently used in daily practice on Achilles tendon ruptures and ankle fractures. At present there is no consensus about using VTE prophylaxis in leg-immobilized patients. Since pharmacoprophylaxis has shown low- or no VTE preventive effects in leg-immobilization, is not recommended by some guidelines. Furthermore, since all patients will undergo clinical examinations and have DVT-screening performed with compression Doppler ultrasound (CDU) removal of leg immobilization this will comprise an extra security for the included patients to detect a VTE. If a VTE is detected clinical guidelines will be followed by initiating chemical VTE-treatment. ;
