Study Summary

The investigators plan to perform an exploratory study to investigate the effects of electro-stimulation of the legs on the symptoms and clinical findings of post thrombotic syndrome (PTS), as well as quality of life of patients with PTS. The investigators theorize that electro-stimulation will provide both a mechanical benefit via muscular contraction and increased venous outflow from the affected extremity, as well as an anesthetic effect, which the investigators anticipate will translate into improved symptomatic outcomes, quality of life (QOL) benefits.

Primary Outcome

The VeinoPlus® electrically stimulates leg muscles via motor nerves, causing muscle contractions. Two electrode pads are placed on the skin of the leg. Pad positions can be chosen by the patient, such as (a) both pads on the calf muscle of one leg, (b) one pad on the calf muscle and one on the plantar aspect of the foot of one leg, and (c) a pad posteriorly on each calf. Length of treatment is programmed into the device and is 20 minutes. The device has a variable intensity setting which allows
